on writing a book and a blog…
Winston Churchill once said,
“Writing a book is an adventure. To begin with it is a toy and an amusement. Then it becomes a mistress, then it becomes a master, then it becomes a tyrant. The last phase is that just as you are about to be reconciled to your servitude, you kill the master, and fling him about to the public.”
(Quoted in Winston Churchill: His Wit and Wisdom, Hyperion Books, p. 135)
So, fellow bloggers, do you see any parallels here between Churchill's take on writing a book, and your own experience in writing a blog? I just found that I could relate to Churchill's allegory here, and am glad to have killed the master... again.
