“Blink and you’re twenty-eight, and everyone else is now a mile down the road, and you’re still trying to find it, and the irony is hardly lost on you that in wanting to live, to learn, to find yourself, you’ve gotten lost.”
― V.E. Schwab, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue

“these walls heard
me when no
one else could.

they gave my
words a home,
kept them safe.

cheered, cried, listened.
changed my life
for the better.

it wasn't enough.
but they heard
every last word.”
― Tamara Ireland Stone, Every Last Word

“Everyone’s got something. Some people are just better actors than others.”
― Tamara Ireland Stone, Every Last Word

“How else would you get to live a thousand lives in the span of only one? The beauty of fiction is that it makes you feel things on a visceral level. You can cry with those characters, laugh with them. It teaches you to look at another’s perspective, to have empathy. In nonfiction, you simply learn about something instead of feeling it.”
― Liz Tomforde, The Right Move
