Inspiration: Animal Quotes

“Dogs and other animals – goats, donkeys, cows, a grumpy rooster – continue to change my writing life.” ~ Jon Katz

For Animal Lovers

If you love animals like I do, then you’ll appreciate the inspiration they provide as we live, work and write! As a ghostwriter, I read the words of others to draw inspiration, defeat writer’s block, and generate ideas—especially thoughts that involve nature and our animal friends. What better way to find inspiration!
