“I didn't really grow up in the spotlight.”

“Dad was, is, and always will be one of the kindest, most generous, gentlest souls I've ever known, and while there are few things I know for certain right now, one of them is that not just my world but the entire world is forever a little darker, less colorful, and less full of laughter in his absence.”

“Whether by my own volition or otherwise, I was given a year-and-a-half break after Dad passed. It was kind of like an elephant in the room, and everyone was giving me space, whether I wanted it or not.”

“For me it's easy to continue remembering someone that is impossible to forget.”

“I have two dogs, and I write at home.”

“Hummingbirds are fun and flighty and strange. It's hard to keep them in one place, and Dad was a bit like that.”

“For those suffering from depression, I know how dark and endless that tunnel can feel. But if happiness seems impossible to find, please hold on to the possibility of hope, faint though it may be.”

“I've been working really hard, and it's been nice because you get to not sit with yourself for too long.”

“I watch every horror film that comes out in theatres. I watch every horror film that's on Netflix.”

“I had a shaved head for six years.”

“I'm not one of these new supermodel girls on Instagram in bikinis. I'm different, but that's okay.”

“My family has always been private about our time spent together.”

“Being bisexual doesn't mean I'm suddenly willy-nilly running around.”

“Avoiding fear, sadness, or anger is not the same thing as being happy.”

“I was always comfortable with my sexuality.”

“I'm not a girly girl. I never have been.”

“I'm really casual.”

“Truthfully, you're not your audience, so all that self-consciousness and all that - it gets in the way of you actually just being the best thing in whatever thing that you're doing.”

“Every teenager, I think, thinks it's the end of the world whenever anything happens, and it's not. You'll get through it. Life will be much more interesting and will certainly be broader when you're older.”

“I think a lot of people are worried about being alone. I completely understand that. I really do. Being alone is terrifying, especially when you've lost people.”
