When I'm editing my work, I'm looking for everything to fit, to feel seamless, for every detail or line of dialogue or scene to feel necessary and organic. I approach the writing of others in much the same way while always working to preserve the writer's voice. To allow myself to be vulnerable on the page, I tell myself no one is going to read my work. There's no way I could put myself out there otherwise.

I live in the middle of nowhere and I'm an insomniac. I just make the time and I read and write really fast so that makes a lot possible for me. I wish I had an explanation for it. I'm grateful for it.

Books are often far more than just books.

Twitter is my happy place. I am not there to overthink 140 characters.

With my writing, I generally just pretend that no one's reading it. I allow myself that delusion so that I can write the things that I write.

I never imagined any of the success I am currently experiencing.

I would rather be a bad feminist than no feminist at all.
