Quotes

When I was five I learned to read. Books were a miracle to me - white pages, black ink, and new worlds and different friends in each one. To this day, I relish the feeling of cracking a binding for the first time, the anticipation of where I'll go and whom I'll meet inside. Jennifer Weiner
Cram your head with characters and stories. Abuse your library privileges. Never stop looking at the world, and never stop reading to find out what sense other people have made of it. If people give you a hard time and tell you to get your nose out of a book, tell them you're working. Tell them it's research. Tell them to pipe down and leave you alone. Jennifer Weiner
Jennifer Weiner quote: "Read everything. Read fiction and non-fiction, read hot best..."
Read everything. Read fiction and non-fiction, read hot best sellers and the classics you never got around to in college. Jennifer Weiner
Jennifer Weiner quote: "If a writer writes poems and short stories and novels, but..."
If a writer writes poems and short stories and novels, but nobody ever reads them, is she really a writer? Jennifer Weiner
If you write thrillers or mysteries or horror fiction or quote-unquote speculative fiction, men might read you, and the 'Times' might notice you. Jennifer Weiner
I sometimes read about authors who say they require a perfectly silent room maintained at precisely 68 degrees, with trash bags taped over the windows and a white-noise machine in the corner to write, and I think, 'Who are these people, and do any of them have kids?' Jennifer Weiner
And then he left, and came back, and our lives fell apart, like a well-loved book that you’d read and read again, until one night you picked it up to read yourself to sleep and the binding collapsed, sending dozens of pages spiraling toward the floor. Jennifer Weiner
