I write to make sense of things that dont make sense to me.

There is nothing going on. I took nothing you wanted. You can't have it back.

I think that hope is the act of continuing in the face of the truth.

I'm not a girl anymore, I'm a woman and my heart beats like prizefighter's fists, and I have not stopped yet, I will not stop.

you can take this mouth this wound you want but you can't kiss and make it better.

The thing about superheroes is that they don't have problems, right? A feminist hooker superhero wouldn't have to worry about assault, or pregnancy, or poverty, or disease, or eating and shelter, or police. In order to make her a superhero, you have to divorce her of the very context that makes her story possible. You have to gloss over the trauma.

That's point of writing: building what you need, right?
