It's nothing. A school project. My go-to answer for anything. Staying out late? School project. Need extra money? School project.

More quotes by Jay Asher
But sometimes there’s nothing left to do but move on.
Jay Asher
Fun drunks make a nice addition to any party. Not looking to fight. Not looking to score. Just looking to get drunk and laugh.
Jay Asher
The road to publication is like a churro - long and bumpy, but sweet.
Jay Asher
You can hear rumors. But you can't know them.
Jay Asher
A lot of you cared, just not enough.
Jay Asher
I want to collapse. I want to fall on the sidewalk right there and drag myself to the ivy.
Jay Asher
You don't know what goes on in anyone's life but your own.
Jay Asher
Did the poet use red to symbolize blood? Anger? Lust? Or is the wheelbarrow simply red because red sounded better than black?
Jay Asher
I sat. And I thought. And the more I thought, connecting the events in my life, the more my heart collapsed.
Jay Asher
Maybe it didn’t seem like a big deal to you Zach. But now, I hope you understand. My world was collapsing. I needed those notes. I needed any hope those notes might have offered. And you? You took that hope away. You decided I didn’t deserve to have it.
Jay Asher
Actually, I love trying to figure out why certain books become hits while others, which may be just as good, have trouble finding an audience.
Jay Asher
I’m sorry.” Once again, those were the words. And now, anytime someone says I’m sorry, I’m going to think of her.
Jay Asher
I wanted people to trust me, despite anything they'd heard. And more than that, I wanted them to know me. Not the stuff they thought they knew about me. No, the real me. I wanted them to get past the rumors. To see beyond the relationships I once had, or maybe still had but that they didn't agree with.
Jay Asher
I miss video games where the jump-kick was the trickiest combo to master.
Jay Asher
That's what I love about poetry. The more abstract, the better. The stuff where you're not sure what the poet's talking about. You may have an idea, but you can't be sure. Not a hundred percent. Each word, specifically chosen, could have a million different meanings.
Jay Asher
Maybe it's not as important to you as it was for me, but that's not for you to decide.
Jay Asher
And at some point, the struggle becomes too much-too tiring-and you consider letting go. Allowing tragedy... or whatever... to happen.
Jay Asher
When you write a book for publication, you're writing it for other people to read.
Jay Asher
After all, how often do we get a second chance?
Jay Asher
Because what if I got to know you and you turned out to be just like they said? What if you weren’t the person I hoped you were? That, more than anything, would have hurt the most.
Jay Asher
