This is a student website with an article attached to it called "The Great Conversation (of the dining hall) by Kimberly Hall. Init she talks about her experience with writing and how one conversation with her mother allowed he to completet an essay that was due for class.
This site has all of the American classics: short stories, books, essays, poems, speeches, etc. Reading through these pieces of literature can be an inspiration for a writer.
A great writing web site. If you've never visited, I suggest taking a look around. You can get a free portfolio, and there are plenty of people here who love to read and write and give really useful feedback.
