“You can go anywhere; be anything you want.
You can follow your heart to the ends of the earth.
But if you can’t discover happiness
right where you are,
you’ll never really find it at all.”
Tabatha Shipley, 30 Days Without Wings

“When he leaves and I’m alone the fear overwhelms me. Craving power above all else? What will that feel like? I’m the person who will turn from something bad or dangerous, I’m a coward. This leaves me with a whole new problem. After all, I can’t run from my own blood.”
Tabatha Shipley, Breaking Eselda

Wendy Heard

“Whenever I’m not writing, time trudges forward with the maddening, mortifying, miserable, morose, moribund pace of a funeral procession.”
Cat Winters, The Raven's Tale

“Yes," I say, for my work is poetry, and I am most certainly paying attention.”
Cat Winters, The Raven's Tale
