Brigid Daull Brockway is technically a writer

A blog about words, wordplay, and etymology, with slightly more than occasional political rants.

Life is short, misery sure, mortality certain.
But on the way, in your work, why not carry those two inflated pig bladders labeled 
Zest and Gusto. 
With them, traveling to the grave, I intend to slap some dummox's behind
pat a pretty girl's coiffure, wave to a tad up a persimmon tree.

~Ray Bradbury
The Joy of Writing
1973

"My tunes and numbers are here. They have filled my years, the years when I refused to die. And in order to do that I wrote, I wrote, I wrote, at noon or 3:00 A.M. So as not to be dead." ―Ray Bradbury, The Illustrated Man
