1 " Unfortunately, most things that you do as a teenager you do to avoid being yelled at. I learned that freedom of choice is given to you as long as you choose what is already chosen for you. "
― Paul S. Anderson
2 " In the time I spent re-reading my throwaway novel, I knew that I had to put myself out there. I needed to have my own inner spark of light if I was going to have a future with Kristi. I didn’t want to work in an office anymore. I needed to work for myself, but that is a difficult step. The journey of writing a novel starts with writing the first word. You can’t have a ending without a beginning, but beginnings are always the hardest part. Too often we let the struggle in the middle overwhelm us and we start over. "
3 " A smile is a confusing thing. It is an inviting facial expression; yet, it can be easily faked. However, it is better to walk this world with a fake smile than an expressionless face that is real. In childhood, even into early adulthood, you can get away with giving the world the finger. It’s cute in the eyes of the grown up world. Adulthood really starts when you bottle up that middle finger and put on that fake smile to pass through the world in between the other fake smiles. I knew I could never do that. I had to find another way. "
