“Whenever you feel an impulse to perpetrate a piece of exceptionally fine writing, obey it — wholeheartedly — and delete it before sending your manuscript to press. Murder your darlings.”
Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch 1916 book On the Art of Writing:
The Sangreal takes up where book 2, The Pair Dadeni, leaves off, with Alex adrift in the Atlantic Ocean after accidentally destroying The Fountain of Youth. And with his usual knack for finding trouble, he faces one deadly encounter after another in his search for the fabled Sangreal (The Holy Grail). The action takes him from Blackbeard Island to The Southern Ute Bear Dance and then on to the dungeons of the Spanish Inquisition and Dracula’s old haunts in Transylvania.
