After the Gazebo Quotes

“Inviting arguments is easy. The goal is to write something bold enough to invite contrary feedback and provoke real discussion.”
― Jen Knox, After the Gazebo

“Storytelling is about exploring the nuances of life, the anguish within beauty and the wisdom within pain. When we hold our stories inside, they weigh us down. When we release them, we find not only voice but perspective.”
― Jen Knox, After the Gazebo

“As a writer, my mission is to represent the perceptible world in such a way that readers can see the extraordinary that lives all around them. I want to converse on the page. I want to squash the humdrum, the mendacity that arrives due to too many overworked routines and overfed expectations. I want to entertain and awaken. I want to imagine and observe. I want to spin my fiction from an honest, curious place.”
― Jen Knox, After the Gazebo
