Drop a little down every day –
you just have to try your best to
turn up and to be you. Those

are the two best things you
can do. Anyone can have talent –
okay, okay – almost anyone

can have talent…But you turn up
and see the world as only you can –
no one else can do that the same way,

so drop a little down each day, write
without hope but also without despair.
That’s how you get it all there.

I learned that from Isak Dinesen,
only one of the many pen-names
that was used by Karen Blixen.
