I get to make things up, people I wish existed, moment I wish I'd lived through, things I wish I'd said. And, for nonfiction, I get to hear the stories of how people survive what the world throws at them; it's profound, this survival instinct. And humbling.(less)

But I tell my students, if they are blocked, to write about what is in front of them, or to their left... what's on their desk, on the walls around them, and why? What we choose to surround ourselves with usually has some meaning for us, some story behind it all... you dig yourself deeper into that magical, creative cave. (less)

Quotes by Rachel Louise Snyder  (?)
Quotes are added by the Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ community and are not verified by Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ.

“the elephant in the room.â€� That we won’t say, simply, that it is men who are violent. It is men who take their violence out on masses of others. School shootings are carried out by young men. Mass murders. Gang warfare, murder-suicides and familicides and matricides and even genocides: all men. Always men. “Every commonly available domestic violence and official general violence statistic, and every anecdotal account about domestic and all other kinds of violence throughout the United States and around the world, point clearly to the fact that men almost monopolize all sectors of violence perpetration,â€� Sinclair wrote.”
Rachel Louise Snyder, No Visible Bruises: What We Don’t Know About Domestic Violence Can Kill Us

“Read any news story today about domestic violence homicide and you’re likely to see some version of the question why didn’t she leave? What you almost surely won’t see is why was he violent?”
Rachel Louise Snyder, No Visible Bruises: What We Don’t Know About Domestic Violence Can Kill Us

“men are taught violence, but they are not taught intimacy. “Violence is a skill that we all had to learn just to stay with the pack growing up,â€� he said. “The trouble is, it doesn’t work for intimacy. That’s a whole different set of skills.”
Rachel Louise Snyder, No Visible Bruises: What We Don’t Know About Domestic Violence Can Kill Us
