“Fiction comes from truth. It is a wonderful, imaginative, flourishing thing grown from a seed of real feelings, real desires, real fears. No artist ever creates from nothing. We work from what we've experienced, inspired by the unique piece of the world we see. It's why art cannot be replicated.”
― Austin Siegemund-Broka, The Roughest Draft

“We've written the rough draft of our love together, the draft with loose ends, unfinished edges, mistakes every other page. But every writer knows there's magic in revision, where your work changes from a manuscript into a book. Where intentions, emotions, missed connections coalesce into something complete. It's where what you mean to say becomes what you have said. The characters deepen, the details shine, the prose sparkles. Suddenly, from nothing, you find your story.”
― Emily Wibberley, The Roughest Draft

“Maybe things can always get better between people who want to do a good job loving each other. Maybe that’s all it takes.”
― Emily Henry, People We Meet on Vacation

“But most of us are too scared to even ask what we want, in case we can't have it.”
― Emily Henry, People We Meet on Vacation
