I used to be a pre-industrial writer: thousands of words in a spurt and then a few days off. But as I get older, I've switched to a mode best described as 'slow and steady wins the race.'

Scott Westerfeld
Sooner or later usually means too late
Scott Westerfeld
I love my virginity to the apocalypse.
Scott Westerfeld
So, there was this beautiful princess. She was locked in a high tower(...)She was stuck up there(...)So the only thing was to jump.

You're insane! she shouted. Pretty cool, huh? No!Tally yelled. Why didn't you tell me it was broken? Shay shrugged. More fun that way? More fun? Her heart beating fast,her vision strangely clear. She was full of anger and relief and...joy. Well, kind of. But you suck!
Scott Westerfeld
It didn't matter what you looked like. It was how you carried yourself, how you saw yourself.
Scott Westerfeld
your not alone, Tally. Don't pretend you are

Surely no one would ever use such a weapon against a city. There are no limits in war, Volger said, still staring out the window.
