C. Rousseau is the creator of the A Quote A Day for Writers series. Dissatisfied with massive tomes of quotations which gave only the names of the authors, she developed the more meditative format of the daily inspiration series, along with the idea of including brief insights into the lives of the authors as well as a sample listing of important books from their bibliographies.

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​These collections of the best quotations on writing contain the distilled wisdom of writers throughout the ages on the subject of writing—writers from Epictetus to Maya Angelou, Mark Twain to Bono, Anton Chekhov to Agatha Christie.
