Not just because I’d met the prince and fallen in love and started on my course toward happiness ever after, but because I’d made something happen.

... even the most independent people sometimes needed help. And if I’d learned nothing else from my life thus far, it was that you don’t always end up where you think you’re going (Margaret Haddix Quotes)
There’s something about each of my books that I’m really proud of, and there’s something about each of my books that I cringe over (Margaret Haddix Quotes)
The deadlines are much, much longer with books. When I was a reporter, a lot of times I’d come in at 8:30 a.m., get an assignment right away, interview somebody, turn the story in by 9:30, and have the finished story in the paper that landed on my desk by noon (Margaret Haddix Quotes)
