Travis Smith: my resume, bio and photos back to the main blog page

“To write weekly, to write daily, to write shortly, to write for busy people catching trains in the morning or for tired people coming home in the evening, is a heartbreaking task for men who know good writing from bad. They do it, but instinctively draw out of harm?s way anything precious that might be damaged by contact with the public, or anything sharp that might irritate its skin.”

WHO: Virginia Woolf (1882?1941), British novelist, essayist, and diarist, in The Common Reader, ch. 19 (1925).
