Thanks for stopping by to learn about me:)
I grew up in a house filled with books. I mean, floor-to-ceiling filled with books. My dad’s field of study was Anglo-Irish literature (written in English rather than Gaelic), and our house was often filled with Irish writers and poets as well as their books. I had no idea this wasn't normal, and that it was special.
I have always loved reading and stories and spent a lot of time as a kid daydreaming myself into the stories other people created for me. (Okay, they weren’t creating them for me specifically, but it often felt that way).

Five Tips for Perfecting Voice

Voice is often something that people new to writing struggle with, and most of us, at some point, have been told by an editor or agent or critique group that our “voice” needs to be stronger, but many early writers struggle with what this means in a practical sense. But even established writers can struggle with voice. Voice is simply the tone your fiction sets, and you want it to mirror as closel

Quotes by Sabrina Fedel  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Stories are not fiction. They are a thousand tiny truths stitched together.”
Sabrina Fedel

“Funny that the people who aren’t doing the fighting are the most tired of it,” Evan said. “We never knew anything about people being sick of it, or protests, or people thinking we were the bad guys. All our news was censored. We thought everyone would be proud of us, like they are of our dads. We were out there, putting everything on the line every day because that’s what our country told us to do, under conditions that would make a saint afraid to look God in the face, and we were doing our best. I knew there were a few anti-war protests before I left, but I never expected it to be like this…”
Sabrina Fedel, Leaving Kent State

“He was telling war stories. The funny, innocuous ones that made everyone forget that war could leave you without fingers, or legs, or a soul.”
Sabrina Fedel, Leaving Kent State

“Dark things have a way of slipping in through narrow spaces.”
Leigh Bardugo, The Witch of Duva

“If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that I was made for another world.”
C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

“Esther always avoided asking questions of Lydley, who found an answer as she found a key, by pouring out a pocketful of miscellanies.”
George Eliot, Felix Holt: The Radical
