"Good prose is a kind of speech, more deliberate and shapely than the words we utter aloud, yet still akin to the human voice.  Anyone who writes well . . . writes primarily by ear, listening to the music of words."

                                                                                                            --Scott Russell Sanders--

                                                                      "Let your fiction grow out of the land beneath your feet.”
