The Burgess sisters arrived together. Tara and Lainie do a little bit of everything. Sometimes dancers, sometimes actresses. Once they were librarians, but that is a subject they will only discuss if heavily intoxicated.

I'm a firm believer that lighting affects mood, and twinkly lights on strings bring something magical to occasions ranging from concerts to weddings, though I'm fond of using them as year-round home decor. There's a reason why they're sometimes called fairy lights. When the night is right, there aren't any strings at all.

A woman I should like to think I know rather well and a woman I had always considered a mystery, are in fact the same person.

Do you remember all of your audiences? Marco asks. Not all of them, Celia says. But I remember the people who look at me the way you do. What way might that be? As though they cannot decide if they are afraid of me or they want to kiss me. I am not afraid of you, Marco says.

...have a theory that she is in love with the dream of someone and not an actual person.

You look like a ghost, Bailey says. He can think of no better way to describe it. You appear the same way to me, so which of us is real?

It's helpful for me to get ideas - the physical action of painting. Sometimes it frees up your writer brain. It's nice for me now that the writing has become a serious career that painting can become more like a hobby.
Erin Morgenstern
The most difficult thing to read is time. Maybe because it changes so many things.
Erin Morgenstern
When you meet someone new who instantly gets you, your sense of humor and your attitudes and your worldview, even if theirs are different - and you get them in return. You both talk and talk and agree and laugh and nod and yes, yes, of course you should get another round of drinks.
Erin Morgenstern
The night that seemed endless hours before is now slipping through your fingers, ticking by as it falls into the past and pushes you towards the future.
Erin Morgenstern
I don't think there's anything wrong being a dreamer.
Erin Morgenstern
...the thrill of being surrounded by something wondrous and fantastical, only magnified and focused directly at her. The feel of his skin against hers reverberates across her entire body, though his fingers remain entwined in hers.
Erin Morgenstern
It is destroying me that I cannot ask you to dance.
Erin Morgenstern
I have tried to let you go and I cannot. I cannot stop thinking of you. I cannot stop dreaming about you.
Erin Morgenstern
I'm an emotional sort of person in general and I have a vivid imagination, so I feel the whole spectrum of emotion strongly when I write.
Erin Morgenstern
I have been surrounded by love letters you two have built each other for years, encased in tents.
Erin Morgenstern
I do not see as well without her. I do not hear as well without her. I do not feel as well without her. I would be better off without a hand or a leg than without my sister.
Erin Morgenstern
I don't always write in order, so composing multi-book stories could get complicated.
