"I Wish I Wrote That!" Wednesday

As an aspiring writer (and therefore, a voracious reader), I often find myself reading other authors and saying to myself "I wish I wrote that!"

I'm sooooo impressed by an author's ability to construct words into meaningful and fresh sentences, that I'd like to highlight them here on my blog each Wednesday.

Anything but Typical

When I write, I can be heard. And known.
But nobody has to look at me. Nobody has to see me at all.

Wowzers. Did she friken hit the nail on the fracken head? I think Nora dug in my brain and snatched this one from me. She wouldn't even have to dig deep, probably could have found it right on my scalp. These lines seriously resonate for me, like hit the tuning fork and I'm singing on key. It's amazing how someone else can share the same thoughts and feelings as you and be able to articulate it so well.

I wish I wrote that!
