Stories are important, the monster said. They can be more important than anything. If they carry the truth.

A Monster Calls, Patrick Ness

A Love for the Written Word

You do not write your life with words...You write it with actions. What you think is not important. It is only important what you do.

A Love for the Written Word

"Stories are wild creatures, the monster said. When you let them loose, who knows what havoc they might wreak."

I read this book in one sitting. The story just gripped me from beginning 'till the end. And yes, it made me cry.It's a good thing i read this late at night, on my bed, because that kind of crying is best done in private.

I recommend this book to everyone. Young and old alike.

The better to see you, my dear

I felt – and feel – as if I’ve been handed a baton, like a particularly fine writer has given me her story and said, “Go. Run with it. Make trouble.” So that’s what I tried to do. Along the way, I had only a single guideline: to write a book I think Siobhan would have liked. No other criteria could really matter.
And now it’s time to hand the baton on to you. Stories don’t end with the writers, however many started the race. Here’s what Siobhan and I came up with. So go. Run with it.
Make trouble.
