Zitat des Tages von Ellen Gilchrist:
I have lived most of my life in small towns, and I'm in the habit of knowing and talking to everyone.
The Mississippi coast is not like south Florida, but it always seems warm enough for sandals and short-sleeved shirts, except for now and then.
I can't conceive of nursing babies and taking care of children and writing, too. I know there are writers that do that, but I'm too single-minded. I can't stand to be interrupted, whether I'm writing a story or dressing a child.
My main home is in Fayetteville, Arkansas, a college town in the Ozark Mountains. I live on the highest hill in a quiet cul-de-sac, surrounded by friends.
I love Fayetteville. I like hills and vistas and hardworking people and fighting snow in winter and chiggers in the summer.
In the schools of small Midwestern towns, the only aristocracies are of beauty, intelligence, and athletic prowess.
I never thought it was unusual to write, and I've been writing or pretending to write since before I even started school.
