It’s been a pretty tough year. I’ve thought of giving up a couple of times, just going into hibernationn…forever. I had moments like this in college. Most of my stories were created out of a desire to just escape, to write my way out of my situation. Anyone else ready for 2017 to be over? I think it’s time for a quote roundup.

There’s a name for people with a crowd of voices in their head. How can one person pretend to be several and portray each character realistically? I’ve been struggling…
