R.F. Kuang
“My refuge was books, when I didn't like the world around me. I would read”
R.F. Kuang, Yellowface

R.F. Kuang
“Writing is the closest thing we have to real magic. Writing is creating something out of nothing, is opening doors to other lands. Writing gives you power to shape your own world when the real one hurts too much.”
R.F. Kuang, Yellowface

J.R.R. Tolkien
“Never laugh at live dragons.”
J.R.R. Tolkien

“Writing didn't used to be so miserable. God I miss my high school days. I could float my notebook open to an empty page and see possibility instead of frustration. When I took real pleasure in stringing words and sentences together just to see how they sounded. When writing was an act of sheer imagination, of taking myself away somewhere else, of creating something that was only for me. I miss writing before I met Athena Liu.”
Rebecca F. Kuang, Yellowface

“Social media is such a tiny, insular space. Once you close your screen, no one gives a fuck.”
Rebecca F. Kuang, Yellowface
