“ His client needs him, he says. Needs him? But isn’t he needed at home? ”
Step out from behind the words. When you're a writer you can imagine that the words speak for you and are you, but they're not. You are this living breathing bad hair day kind of person.
~ Beth Kephart
Beauty is the worst kind of lie.
Nature is not the number-one mystery, I’ve learned. It’s the heart that takes top honors.
The night before, I'd gone overboard with my Lila poems, and maybe it's true that I was hoping that in them he'd see the genius of me, the beauty of my words in his hands.
