I try to use all of my senses when describing a setting, and try to think of everything that would impact a character in any given scene Picture Quote #1

The dragonets found the carpenters to be even more fascinating than the furniture, and followed the poor men from pen to pen, crowding around to watch, tasting the wooden planks, trying to steal the tools. It made for an interesting day for everyone, as the boys tried to keep the dragonets away from the carpenters, and the dragonets tried to get at the carpenters, and the carpenters worked probably a great deal faster than they ever had in their lives, sure that the dragonets would go from tasting the wood to tasting them Picture Quote #1

You are human and mortal; we are the sum of our weak moments and our strong Picture Quote #1

Adventure, yeah. I guess that’s what you call it when everybody comes back alive Picture Quote #1

Honor was never taking the easy way when it was also the wrong one. Never telling a falsehood unless the truth was painful and unnecessary, or a lie was necessary to save others. Never manipulating the truth to serve only yourself. Protecting the weak and helpless; standing fast even when fear made you weak. Keeping your word Picture Quote #1

In a calm, clear voice, she suggested that the wyrsa in question could do several highly improbable, athletically difficult and possibly biologically impractical things involving its own mother, a few household implements, and a dead fish Picture Quote #1

We’re none of us quite so sure of our place in the world that we can’t be rocked off our feet by bad times. It’s the getting back up again that counts. Not that you fall, but getting back up again counts for more in the long run Picture Quote #1

Not forgiving someone hurts you worse than it hurts him... even if he doesn’t deserve to be forgiven... Not forgiving someone is like not pulling a thorn out of your foot just because you weren’t the one who put it there Picture Quote #1

And when it comes down to cases, everything written is at least in part a fantasy. Except maybe for the national budget. That’s horror Picture Quote #1

Fanatics can justify practically any atrocity to themselves. The more untenable their position becomes, the harder they hold to it, and the worse the things they are willing to do to support it Picture Quote #1

Nevertheless, now that I have met you, I know that all that I am, and all that I have, could not match what you are worth Picture Quote #1

Getting angry over something that won’t change is like seeing what happens if you hit your hand with a hammer over and over again, and being surprised each time when it hurts. So you might as well stop doing it Picture Quote #1

Once the blinders are off, it’s rather hard to go back to seeing things the way you used to Picture Quote #1

I’m not a legend or a hero, I don’t slay dragons, I don’t do any of the things that a real hero can. But I can make things better, one day at a time, for most of the kingdom Picture Quote #1

Evil working in subtler fashion; marriages that proved to be no more then legalized slavery, and the careful manipulation of a bright and sensitive mind until its owner truly believed with all her heart in her own worthlessness. Betrayal, not once, but many times over Picture Quote #1

A book’s alright when the weather’s foul and there’s nothing else to do, but why sit and read when the wind is calling your name? Picture Quote #1

Sympathy can be addictive and can kill strong men as surely as a diet of nothing but sugar Picture Quote #1
