Moi is fairly old school. She will buy her first smart phone tomorrow so she can tweet constantly at the ALA Midwinter Meeting which is the weekend of the 25th. There is nothing like having a nice piece of paper and writing on it with your pen. Although, moi uses a computer, she feels more secure with a jar of pens on her desk. She even has that favorite leopard pen and pens in different colors. Today’s deposit into the ‘Joy Jar’ is the pen.
To hold a pen is to be at war.
Voltaire
You want to be a writer, don’t know how or when? Find a quiet place, use a humble pen.

Beneath the rule of men entirely great, the pen is mightier than the sword.
Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton
Writers are people who put pen to paper every day.
Richard Russo
A writer uses a pen instead of a scalpel or blow torch.
Michael Ondaatje
The pen is the tongue of the mind.
Horace
