order needs feels
Why do we feel the need to disconnect in order to connect?
moments feels
It was one of those moments when you feel the future so much that it humbles the present.
balls feels seems
And just like that, the universe goes wrong. Just like that, all the enormity seems to shrink into a ball and float away from my reach. I feel it, and she doesn't. Or I feel it, and she won't.
feels
It feels like we’ve stepped outside of time. Even though there is no such place.
trying feels
We love and we feel and we try and we hope.
believe what-matters feels
I feel the universe is telling me something. And it doesn't even matter if it's true or not. What matters is that I feel it, and believe it.
perfect different feels
The truth feels different from other things. The closest you can come to describing it is that it feels like taking a perfect breath.
kind hubris feels
hubris, n. Every time I call you mine, I feel like I'm forcing it, as if saying it can make it so. As if I'm reminding you, and reminding the universe: mine. As if that one word from me could have that kind of power.
feels like-something
It doesn't feel like a date. It doesn't feel like friendship. It feels like something that fell off the tightrope but hasn't yet hit the net.
finishing love novels people vampire wanting
People read vampire novels and say, 'Oh I want to read another vampire novel.' People read fantasy, and they're like, 'Oh I love fantasy.' I don't know that people are necessarily finishing 'Hunger Games' and immediately wanting to read another dystopian tale.
author perfect
There's no such thing as a perfect person, so it makes no sense to write a perfect person. I don't know any author who'd try. And we write characters, not representations of groups.
honestly matters poorly reflects second true whether
I can honestly say I've never thought for a second about whether a character reflects poorly on any group. All that matters to me is that the character is true to my belief in who he or she is.
bouncing guarantees love written
I love bouncing my words off of someone else's, and the fact that writing a story with someone else guarantees you'll get something you never, ever would have written on your own.
voice silent
That's what the voices in your head are for, to get you through the silent parts.
