Book cover for Holmes of Kyoto: Volume 1
if you only create the things you like, you can’t call it professional work. It’s only a hobby. I believe that being a professional means creating what the public wants while trying to express yourself as much as possible.

Maggie Tokuda-Hall
“There’s freedom in stories, you know. We read them and we become something else. We imagine different lives, and while we turn the pages, we get to live them. To escape the lot we’re given.”
Maggie Tokuda-Hall, The Mermaid, the Witch, and the Sea

Sofi Thanhauser
“The demographics of cotton farms in Lubbock resemble those of the U.S. agriculture industry as a whole: the farm operators are older, white, and U.S.-born, while most hired farmworkers are younger, immigrant, and Latino. Estimates vary, but it is likely that 75 percent of the agricultural workforce is undocumented. Those charged with using Roundup on cotton are in an almost impossible position to seek legal redress when their work exposes them to known carcinogens.[*] The average life expectancy for Latino farmworkers in the United States is forty-nine, compared to seventy-three to seventy-nine for the rest of the population.”
Sofi Thanhauser, Worn: A People's History of Clothing

Rory Power
“Byatt’s carved her initials over and over. BW. BW. BW. She does that everywhere. On the bunk, on her desk in every class we had, on the trees in the grove by the water. Marking Raxter as hers, and sometimes I think if she asked, I’d let her do the same to me.”
Rory Power, Wilder Girls

Rory Power
“Some days it’s fine. Others it nearly breaks me. The emptiness of the horizon, and the hunger in my body, and how will we ever survive this if we can’t survive each other?”
Rory Power, Wilder Girls

Maggie Tokuda-Hall
“Yes, she was an orphan, a sister, a pirate, a girl, and also a boy. But more importantly, she was a person who sought power to protect those she loved. Including herself. Or himself. Both were equally true to her. Neither told the whole story.”
Maggie Tokuda-Hall, The Mermaid, the Witch, and the Sea
