(੭*ˊᵕˋ)੭‧˚₊*̥✧

Currently reading this book about how to read like a professor, and I want to put some of the quotes on post-its and stick them to my wall. One that's pertinent to my writing group is about originality. There's always someone who says, "Nothing's original; it's all been written before," and that always boggles me. I only know one book about a shark attacking an island resort with an aquaphobic sheriff, and I only know one book about a Kansas schoolgirl who gets swept up in a tornado, then lands in a country with talking lions, scarecrows and tin men. So presumably we can all write a book that's one of a kind if we just use our noggins.

But the author of this book puts it better than I can. I suppose it's okay to post one little paragraph. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
