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

“When I ask you to stop making innovative art and start making vulnerable art, I am asking you to stop trying to make something new and start making something you. Your worldview, your emotions, your pain, your joy, your relationships, your noticings, your culture, your heritage, your ancestry, your fears, your desires, your trauma, your love. Your truth.”
Amie McNee, We Need Your Art: Stop Messing Around and Make Something

“It takes tremendous courage to alchemize parts of our internal world into something external and tangible.”
Amie McNee, We Need Your Art

“I think you are a woman of power and intuition, Your Majesty.” “Does that make me a witch?” “Only if it gets in a man’s way.”
Amie McNee, Regrettably, I am About to Cause Trouble
