Been reading the Letters of Ernest Hemingway – amazing
writer, whether sending a note to his letter carrier or writing to his
mom. Letter writing is an art that I'm afraid is dying in our
technological world.
“All good books are alike,” Hemingway said, “in that they are truer than if
they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel
that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you: the good
and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse and sorrow, the people and the places and
how the weather was.
"If you can get so that you can give that to people, then you are a writer.”
