Feminism is definitely a part of everything I do.

Writing, at its best and truest, can offer solace and salvation for both readers and writers.

Emotionally, my ambition is not yet sated. Emotionally, I still feel like a kid at the adult's table, yearning for recognition. I'm not sure where this all comes from but it is how I feel.

It is deeply unfair to task writers of color with unique responsibilities that we don't assign to all writers.

The notion that I should be fine with the status quo even if I am not wholly affected by the status quo is repulsive.

I don't want the success to go away. I don't want it to seem unearned.

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.
