Jessica Tarahata Hagedorn quotes

By saying that all my characters have a little bit of me in them, I mean that I try to be invested and empathetic in all my characters-whether they are principal or secondary, deeply flawed and not very "nice.” If you're in tune with your story then the characters do come at you organically. There isn't an order to how they might appear. (Jessica Tarahata Hagedorn)
