The letter Q is a very unique letter, writing it is even fun, though I dispised it when I learned how to write in cursive because I always mixed "q" with "g" LOL
Today Q will be represented by quotes: Enjoy!
"Detail makes the difference between boring and terrific writing. It’s the difference between a pencil sketch and a lush oil painting. As a writer, words are your paint. Use all the colors."

Excellent quotes.... so true!
Great quotes! Especailly the one about not throwing up on your editor.
great quotes. i've been doing quotes all month for A-Z. it's been a lot of fun finding them.
Never throw up on an editor (or agent) is great advice. :D
Great quotes! I chose quotes for today too. But we didn't choose any of the same ones!
The one I would take to heart is Never throw up on the Editor. That would just be bad manners!
Some great quotes today.
Thank you for the great quotes, Summer! And for promoting my contest! :o)
hahaha I love Ellen Datlow's quote: "Never throw up on an editor."
Good advice ;)
Ooo. Good ones. I'm tucking that last one in my file drawer. I needed it today.
I think all of your readers agree about the throwing up quote. In general, throwing up on anyone but a loved one is frowned upon.
Great blog.
I liked all of the quotes, but that Winston Churchill quote brought such vivid pictures to mind. Thinking of so many soldiers pushing forward with so much sacrifice right now, it takes courage. They deserve so much respect.
Great quotes.
