The Book Corner (German)

Sometimes people don’t want to hear the truth because they don’t want their illusions destroyed.

WHEN PEOPLE ASK ABOUT MY WRITING PROCESS

Frodo was chilled to the marrow. After a while the song became clearer, and with dread in his heart he perceived that it had changed into an incantation:     Cold be hand and heart and bone,     and cold be sleep under stone:     never more to wake on stony bed,     never, till the Sun fails and the Moon is dead.     In the black wind the stars shall die,     and still on gold here let them lie,     till the dark lord lifts his hand     over dead sea and withered land. He heard behind his head a creaking and scraping sound. Raising himself on one arm he looked, and saw now in the pale light that they were in a kind of passage which behind them turned a corner. Round the corner a long arm was groping, walking on its fingers towards Sam, who was lying nearest, and towards the hilt of the sword that lay upon him.

How do you move on? You move on when your heart finally understands that there is no turning back.

Powerful women do not have to act masculine or cold in order to get things done. Powerful women can be huggers who name their dog Lamby and make flower crowns in their free time.

I used to think I was the strangest person in the world but then I thought there are so many people in the world, there must be someone just like me who feels bizarre and flawed in the same ways I do. I would imagine her, and imagine that she must be out there thinking of me too. Well, I hope that if you are out there and read this and know that, yes, it’s true I’m here, and I’m just as strange as you.
