Thinking about writing...


I'm always involved with my book in various ways these days, and work progresses. It was fun to find an inspiring quote from Margaret Mitchell. I share that quote with you here, along with some information about her. As her personal story tells us, you just never know what Life is bringing your way!

Blessings to Margaret Mitchell wherever she is, and thanks for the inspiration!

"There ain't nothing from the outside can lick any of us."
– Margaret Mitchell

"Margaret Mitchell wrote just one book, the immensely successful Civil War novel, Gone With the Wind, which she wrote while convalescing with a broken ankle, basing it on tales her relatives had told her. She then put the book away until a publisher asked if she had ever written a novel. After giving him the manuscript, she got cold feet and asked for it back, but he'd already begun reading. The book still sells more than 200,000 copies a year. She was born in Atlanta in 1900 and died in 1949."
