Gary Lee Miller interviews author Cecelia Tichi about her new book, Jack London: A Writer's Fight for a Better America (UNC Press, Sept. 2015).
Jack London was a prolific writer, as you'll learn in this interview. Below are a few of his famous aphorisms. This week's Write the Book Prompt is to choose one that inspires you, and write for twenty minutes.
- I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet.
- A bone to the dog is not charity. Charity is the bone shared with the dog, when you are just as hungry as the dog.
- Darn the wheel of the world! Why must it continually turn over? Where is the reverse gear?
