"I realize now that somehow fiction is a far more personal thing to share. Our journal and our dreams - they come from different parts of us. // I realize now that even more than reading a book, writing one requires you to live deeply in the world you have created. Characters, places, moments that I've been living with every day for years now, are suddenly gone. And with that startling feeling of loss I realize that I truly feel like I have done what I set out to do..."

The most BEAUTIFUL post from @paulrosolie. It's long, but please go read it. Writers and readers alike will feel the truth behind his description of fiction and why it matters.

We've spent countless hours with THE GIRL AND THE TIGER over the last several months, from editing to cover design to interior layout to marketing ideas, and I can truly say that this is the kind of book that changes you. It touches something in your soul and makes you a better person than you were before you read it. Hats off to Paul for having the courage to write something so personal and profound. ❤🐯❤
