    Thomas Slatin Quote On Writing A Novel

    June 27, 2022 / No Comments

    “Although I have considered writing a novel, my wheelhouse is not in fiction, and even it it were, my writing would center around black forests and wolves, with characters all in half-costume, half-awake, and half gone to seed. When I was younger, I would write in riddles and rhymes, whereas in recent years, I have started writing with old words which are so obscure that people falsely assume that they are simply made-up words, in the trademark great reverent style that is uniquely mine.” Thomas Slatin

    “Everyone speaks of how far the human race has advanced, yet we refuse to acknowledge the fact that we still unnecessarily and inexcusably condone the use of violence and destruction as a justifiable means of conflict resolution.” —Thomas W.P. Slatin

    Yearbook

    November 24, 2014 / 9 Comments

    Recently, a handful of my friends have decided to post scans of their high school yearbook pages on Facebook.  And while I have since misplaced the yearbook from the year I graduated high school, conveniently, or otherwise, the concept of posting ones yearbook online has inspired various thoughts and ideas.

    I’m A Dreamer

    July 28, 2014 / 12 Comments

    All people dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their mind, wake in the morning to find that it was vanity. But the dreamers of the day are dangerous people, for they dream their dreams with open eyes, and make them come true. – D.H. Lawrence
