It can be both exciting and dangerous because you have to remind yourself that you are, in fact, a living and breathing human being and they are only fictional.

I think that when you write a story, and fall in love with the finished product, it is very easy to start thinking of the characters as real. While writing Across the Miles, I often found myself in the middle of a situation and asking myself "What would Sebastian or Brooke do?" That was usually a clue that I needed to take a break and interact with my family!(less)

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

“It was almost as if reality had finally caught up to us, as if up until this point we’d actually had a chance of escaping it.”
Rhonda James, Alaska or Bust

“I woke up the next day, and the day after that, and pretty soon I realized that Matthew hadn't been the one that made my heart beat, he only made it beat faster.”
Rhonda James, Alaska or Bust

“Cassie, stop. I can't do this.' He pulls back to meet my hurt gaze.
'I know why you're doing this.' I draw a breath, letting it out on a long exhale. 'You don't trust me with your heart. You're afraid if you give it to me there's a chance it could be broken, again.'
'It's been shattered once. I'm afraid next time it won't get broken. It'll be obliterated,' he says quietly.
I press a single kiss to his lip. 'You're my Superman. You're not supposed to be afraid of anything.'
'Even Superman had weaknesses.”
Rhonda James, Jersey Girl

“Love openly,” my heart whispered. “Love unconditionally,” my heart begged. “Love the struggles,” my heart taught. “Love in the moment.”
Brittainy C. Cherry, Art & Soul

“Because pretending to be happy is almost like being happy. Until you remember that you’re only pretending. Then you’re sad. Really sad. Because wearing a mask every day of your life is the hardest thing to do. And after a while, you get a little scared because the mask becomes you.”
Brittainy C. Cherry, Loving Mr. Daniels

“You are not going to do it?” His voice was calm but gravelly. A rich, deep baritone that held no fear. “I cannot say I am disappointed.”
“I… I…” In the history of great comebacks, that had to rank in the top three. Idiot.
“If you are not going to stake me, what do you intend?”
“I… I…” Oh, come on, Addison. At least get out a verb. “I found you. All I want is for you to be well enough to leave.”
Lauren Stewart, Unseen

“I woke up the next day, and the day after that, and pretty soon I realized that Matthew hadn't been the one that made my heart beat, he only made it beat faster.”
