Like some dogs: kick them once and they never trust you again, no matter how nice you are to them.
First comes smiles, then lies. Last is gunfire.-Roland Deschain, of Gilead
I had a period where I thought I might not be good enough to publish.
When it comes to the past, everyone writes fiction.
When all else fails, give up and go to the library.
The town kept its secrets, and the Marsten House brooded over it like a ruined king.
