"I like to think of what happens to……" — Terry McMillan

I like to think of what happens to characters in good novels… - Terry McMillan

"I like to think of what happens to characters in good novels and stories as knots--things keep knotting up. And by the end of the story--readers see an unknotting of sorts. Not what you expect, not the easy answers you get on TV, not wash and wear philosophies, but a reproduction of believable, emotional experiences."

— Terry McMillan
