books are precious
"I think books should be cheaper. I want books to be accessible. If books are precious (and as a result, expensive), then publishers win, readers lose, and by proxy, writers lose, too."
We Have a Responsibility
"We know in our deep and private places that we have a responsibility to take on things that draw our attention and to turn them into these mysterious objects—poems and stories—that illuminate, that offer an objection to the status quo, that warn and empower."
raising questions
"A good story should always be raising questions—not asking them directly, but instead forcing the reader to ask them."
