Genevieve Valentine Quotations

The ways in which language changes never ceases to interest me.

I will always have a soft spot for 'East of the Sun, West of the Moon,' which I discovered just at the age when I was beginning to enjoy the darkness in fairy tales but still wanted a story where the good guys win.

Most of my writing takes place at a cramped desk in a cramped apartment, so whenever I get to write on a train or make notes on a road trip, it has an entirely different cadence. And I can remember specific writing sessions while on a train through beautiful countryside in a way I can remember almost nothing else.

You can't expect people to give you the things you love, unless you know how to ask.

This is what happens when you take a step: you are moving closer to what you want.
