Unstuck Quotes

“Remember, you don't write to win a trophy. You write because you love to, and because there's a story you want to tell. That's the prize you give yourself, and it's the only one that matters.”
― Barbara Dee, Unstuck

“I thought your writing was going better lately. So why are you forcing yourself to write something different? I mean besides your story, which is what you really want to write. What you need to write. Isn't that what you keep telling me?”
― Barbara Dee, Unstuck

“I guess if you're a superstar like Dahlia, people expect you to win every contest, get perfect grades, go to a fancy college, even if that's not who you really are. Maybe if you're Journey, people expect you to have no friends, so then, abracadabra, you don't.
What would it be like if people didn't expect stuff, didn't assign words like 'superstars' or 'weirdos?' 'Jocks' and 'brains' also.
Vanguards and Scribes, too, actually.
Words that get you stuck, and decide your fate forever. Unless someone rescues you. Or you escape.”
― Barbara Dee, Unstuck
