She didn’t believe there was anything like perfect, fairytale love. Most people were flawed and prone to mistakes.

I recognize terror as the finest emotion and so I will try to terrorize the reader. But if I find that I cannot terrify, I will try to horrify, and if I find that I cannot horrify, I'll go for the gross-out. I'm not proud. ↗
