#atozchallenge : Z is for Zeitgist #fiction #writing #quotes

Theme:  Quotes from Authors and Bookish People about Writing 

And so the A to Z Challenge comes to an end. It has been a great adventure, and has left me completely exhausted. But it has been great to get in touch with old friends and make new ones!

It has also been a special privilege to work with the amazing, incredible ladies of #teamdamyanti Guilie, Anna, Samantha, Csenge, Vidya, Jemima and Mary! The A to Z team has done it again, and my special thanks go out to co-hosts Lee, Alex, Tina, Jeremy, Nicole, Stephen, Heather, AJ, MJ and Pam for letting me work with them, and be part of an exceptional bunch of bloggers on a great adventure together.

So, I leave you with this last AZ post today. The Reflections Post Linky list will be up and running on May 5th on the A to Z Challenge blog.
Write your post talking about your AZ experience this year, and enter
your post link on the list. Your feedback will help us improve the next
challenge!

This last day of the challenge, we discuss the importance of books and authors as chroniclers of our times, the ones who choose not to walk on the fence, those who set the Zeitgeist

The Zeitgeist (spirit of the age or spirit of the time)
is the intellectual fashion or dominant school of thought that typifies
and influences the culture of a particular period in time. ~Wikipedia

Here’s are a few bookish people on books and zeitgeist:
