I should probably put this under literaryquotes, but I like the quote so much (and have been looking for it for so very long) that I'm putting it in my LJ:

WHY I WRITE FOR CHILDREN By Isaac Bashevis Singer

The List )

quotations, writing for children

Isn't it though? I found that quote years ago, but then I lost it, and I never found it again till yesterday.

Since Mr. Singer wrote this, and read it when he was awarded his Nobel Prize for Literature in 1978, feel free to gack it. It's excellent and should be gacked.

Heh. Thanks. The comma one and the bad spelling one, as well as this Discworld icon, were made by the ultra-brilliant copperbadge, also known as Sam Vimes of "Stealing Harry" fame. The other one, featuring child Remus and young man Remus, I got from thistlerose. (I don't think she made it, though.)
