Noteworthy Quotes:

💬 “And so I realized after this entire process that I could either write with the reader in mind, And make them upset anyway, or I could write for me, I could write the book I want to write. I could tell the story I want to tell. I can write something that is so true to myself that it won't matter if people don't like the book because I know that like fundamentally, I wouldn't even want to be their friend.”

💬 “For every one-star review, for people who just like don't get me and the book was never going to resonate with, there are probably 3 to 5 five-star reviews telling me that they were like crying by page 10, because they had never felt so witnessed and seen.”

💬 “The core of any story that you tell, any book that you write, any play that you act in, like anything… the core of that has to be true to you in order for it to resonate with the right readers.”
