About this Quote

This quote by Tanith Lee speaks with the suggestion that every person has a tale to tell, and that creating is an ability that can be sharpened with practice. Lee recommends that authors have an advantage in informing tales due to the fact that they have had much more technique, but that everyone has the potential to compose a book. The expression "old saying" indicates that this suggestion is not a brand-new one, however instead a view that has been around for a long time.

It is a reminder that everybody has a tale to inform, which with method, we can all become better authors.
