More quotes by Alex Flinn
I have a great deal of empathy for anyone who's having a hard time. I believe this ability to see another's viewpoint has served me well as a writer.
Alex Flinn
I write contemporary fiction, and that is what my readers want to read.
Alex Flinn
That's what true love should be like-the person should be part of your soul and you should know what they're feeling all the time.
Alex Flinn
You shouldn't miss someone who don't miss you, right?
Alex Flinn
Seem like a lot of people wear shoes they can't walk in.
Alex Flinn
This isn't a fairy tale. It's New York City.
Alex Flinn
I was painfully shy, and I had tremendous difficulty making friends. So, lacking friends, I watched other people. Watching is something all writers must do, and it was in junior high that I learned to do it.
Alex Flinn
I was a lawyer for about ten years. The law teaches one to see things from all different angles.
Alex Flinn
Maybe we judge people too much by their looks because it's easier than seeing what's really important.
Alex Flinn
Something with inner beauty will live forever, like the scent of a rose.
Alex Flinn
You are right. I have no idea, and it is none of my business, and I was taught to obey my parents. But sometimes it is just impossible to obey blindly. Sometimes a child must strike out on her own. A child cannot be a child forever, whether that means not touching a spindle or . . . or . . .
Alex Flinn
I enjoy people who aren't afraid to say what they mean. It makes life so much easier!
Alex Flinn
It would be so great to have someone my own age to talk to, even if it was just about books.
Alex Flinn
Sometimes, unexpected things can happen.
Alex Flinn
A boy admiring a pretty girl. A rare thing to be certain. But love-true love-is something else.
Alex Flinn
Those who do not know how to see the precious things in life will never be happy.
Alex Flinn
True love would look a second time. True love would not be thwarted. True love would not accept no for an answer. He would search the world and certainly look again and again in every cottage in Euphrasia until he finds you.
Alex Flinn
Any experience that isn't fun is probably something I will at least use in my writing someday.
Alex Flinn
Each of my books took roughly one and a half years to write. Some may have taken a shorter time to write the draft and a longer time to revise, while others were the opposite.
Alex Flinn
I wrote poetry, journals, and, especially, plays for the neighborhood kids to perform. I had an ordinary, happy childhood. Nothing much was going on, but I had fun.
