Simultaneously, I'm developing the next installment to the Outlier series, which is proving to be, by far, the most violent, surprising, and unsettling book I've written to date. I'm a little worried by the direction some of my favorite characters are going, and I can't stop them.(less)

Quotes by Daryl Banner  (?)

“Saving a life isn't just pulling a friend from the fire," he explains, the daredevil playing in his wet,
excited eyes. "It's thereafter keeping him from the fire. Saving a life means saving it over and over.”
Daryl Banner, Outlier: Rebellion

“I'd die for you," he repeats, quieter.
"I'd rather you not," I admit with a smile. "I would ... really miss your heartbeat.”
Daryl Banner, Dead Of Winter

“Growing up is terrifying. When you’re young, you have this feeling inside of you that you’ll eventually get the chance to do and try everything in life, because life looks so infinitely long from the perspective of a kid. Then suddenly, you realize that every choice you make unchooses all the other ones. This isn’t a video game. There’s no reset button and no infinite lives. Every single decision I make is permanent, and the more I make, the slimmer my path becomes in this shrinking, dark forest we call adulthood.”
Daryl Banner, Bromosexual
