Book cover for The Waste Lands (The Dark Tower, #3)
‘See the TURTLE of enormous girth! On his shell he holds the earth. His thought is slow but always kind; He holds us all within his mind. On his back all vows are made; He sees the truth but mayn’t aid. He loves the land and loves the sea, ...more

Maggie Stiefvater
You are made of dreams and this world is not for you.
Maggie Stiefvater, Call Down the Hawk

Sennah Yee
“What would it be like to die here?
What do you want to be when you rot?
I want flowers seeping out of my jaw, snaking around my bones.
I want something to grow out of me.”
Sennah Yee

Rainer Maria Rilke
“Ich lebe mein Leben in wachsenden Ringen,
die sich über die Dinge ziehn.
Ich werde den letzten vielleicht nicht vollbringen,
aber versuchen will ich ihn.

Ich kreise um Gott, um den uralten Turm,
und ich kreise jahrtausendelang;
und ich weiß noch nicht: bin ich ein Falke, ein Sturm
oder ein großer Gesang.”
Rainer Maria Rilke, Gedichte

Terry Pratchett
“I think I believe in the secret geometries, and the colours on the edge of light, and the marvellous in everything.”
Terry Pratchett, The Last Hero

Nina Varela
“I want queer authors to write anything and everything they need to write. I have no interest in gatekeeping; I want the full spectrum. I want the coming out books. I want the books about queer suffering. I want on-page catharsis and exploration of trauma. I want the happy books, too: queer joy books, cute romantic comedies, first crush books, fantasies about queer royals and revolutionaries and spaceship captains. (...) We need all types of queer stories because all types of queer people exist. I want the market to be so saturated with queer books that anyone who needs to see themselves in a story—anyone who hasn’t yet seen themselves, hasn’t yet gotten to be the hero—can walk into any bookstore and find a book (or six) about someone who experiences the world like they do. I want every queer author to get the chance to tell their story. To tell people, We exist everywhere. We suffer, we survive, we love. We can be magic, too.”
Nina Varela
