perfect fantasy-love and-love
But to love something despite. To know the flaws and love them too. This is rare and pure and perfect.
rooms needs pretentious
I decided to dub the room with the good chairs my lutery. Or perhaps my performatory. I would need a while to come up with something suitably pretentious.
lists really-cool
For me the really cool parts of being an author don't have anything to do with getting onto a bestseller list.
reading boys joy
I will say the most raw joy I've experienced reading has probably come from the times I've been reading with my little boys.
reading racism scary
Unfortunately, a lot of fantasy is chock full of sexism and racism. A lot of authors don't even realize they're doing it, and a lot of readers don't know they're reading it. That's what makes it so scary in some cases.
sweet rooms said
You,” I said, “are sweet music in a distant room.
study fortitude spine
You lack the requisite spine and testicular fortitude to study under me.
gentleman let-me manly
I have had a few gentlemen let me know they find my manly beardiness somewhat alluring. Never any ladies though.
reading swimming sharks
I always read. You know how sharks have to keep swimming or they die? I’m like that. If I stop reading, I die.
liars way stories
You have to be a bit of a liar to tell a story the right way.
relationship book female
Books are a poor substitute for female companionship, but they are easier to find.
book giving community
Here's the thing: Authors live or die by recommendations. [That's one of the reason I review so many books on Goodreads.] Giving books you love good reviews is one of the nicest things you can do for an author. What's more it's good for the entire community.
We all become what we pretend to be.
confusing understanding way
Using words to talk of words is like using a pencil to draw a picture of itself, on itself. Impossible. Confusing. Frustrating ... but there are other ways to understanding.
