“I once heard a writer say, ‘It’s easy to write a novel, you just slit your wrist and let it bleed on the pages.’ She was right... Sophocles and Freud believed that we are defined by our fears. There’s a lot of truth to that. When you share your greatest fears, your vulnerability, we bond in that honesty. We connect with each other and we don’t feel so alone. And that’s what books are really about. Connecting.”
