Reading with an eye towards metaphor allows us to become the person we’re reading about, while reading about them.

Lisa entered YG four months before me, so she actually knew Seoul better than I did.
There are so many remarkable playwrights working right now, that I see everything I can. Annie Baker is a genius, I'll see anything she writes. The same for Lynn Nottage, Cynthia Hopkins, and Lisa D'Amour. Anything they've got going on, I'll go see.
Reading is dreaming. Reading is entering a world of imagination shared between reader and author. Reading is getting beyond the words to the story or meaning underneath.
Before I became a parent, I was a bestselling author and speaker pounding up the escalators of a different airport every week.
