Sue Grafton
Ghosts don't haunt us. That's not how it works. They're present among us because we won't let go of them.
Sue Grafton
Sometimes I wonder what the difference is between being cautious and being dead.
Sue Grafton
Writing isn't about the destination-writing is the journey that transforms the soul and gives meaning to all else.
