The greatest rules of dramatic writing are conflict, conflict, conflict.
James Frey
I stand, walk over to him, sit down on his bed, put my arms around him, hug him. He hugs me back strong and I can feel the shame coming through his arms. I am a Criminal and he is a Judge and I am white and he is black, but at this moment none of that matters. He is a man who needs a friends and I can be his friend.
James Frey
But all good things come to an end, often a sad angry miserable end. The cause for such an end can usually be whittled down to one of three things: money, sickness, love lost.
James Frey
In life we often look to others for simple, but difficult answers, despite the fact that we have those answers ourselves.
James Frey
Sometimes skulls are thick. Sometimes hearts are vacant. Sometimes words don't work.
James Frey
All of us started normal. All of us started out as functioning human beings with the potential to do almost anything we wanted, but somewhere along the paths of our lives, we got lost.
