Book cover for A Cosmology of Monsters
My monster suit always fit better than my regular skin. I was never a guardian, or a hero, but a creator and harvester of fear.

Anne de Marcken
“The earth holds things in its body. In clay. In ice. The real. The unreal. Time. Each other. All the chances we had.”
Anne de Marcken, It Lasts Forever and Then It's Over

Joan Didion
“MARIA MADE A LIST of things she would never do. She would never: walk through the Sands or Caesar’s alone after midnight. She would never: ball at a party, do S-M unless she wanted to, borrow furs from Abe Lipsey, deal. She would never: carry a Yorkshire in Beverly Hills.”
Joan Didion, Play It as It Lays

Richard Linklater
“I think I’m always so much more happy with books and movies and stuff. I think I get more excited about well-done representations of life than life itself.
- Celine”
Richard Linklater, Before Sunrise & Before Sunset: Two Screenplays

Alexander Chee
“The sacrifice is usually chained to the rock. She does not usually dance out to meet her monster.”
Alexander Chee, The Queen of the Night

Emily Brontë
“Catherine Earnshaw, may you not rest as long as I am living. You said I killed you--haunt me then. The murdered do haunt their murderers. I believe--I know that ghosts have wandered the earth. Be with me always--take any form--drive me mad. Only do not leave me in this abyss, where I cannot find you! Oh, God! It is unutterable! I cannot live without my life! I cannot live without my soul!”
Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights
