people easy rest-easy
Maybe I was just one of those people who couldn't rest easy unless things went catastrophically wrong.
chubby lost positive remember unless
I remember when I was a kid, I could never find anything positive about chubby girls. If a girl was pudgy in books, she wasn't okay. She couldn't be happy or make friends unless she lost weight.
aware broader since stories
Since becoming aware of the need to be inclusive, I've tried to make my stories broader and more representative of our world.
deuces roles growing
Perhaps that was the point; life, if you did it right, meant learning and changing. If you didn't, you died- or stopped growing - which amounted to more or less the same thing. So I would slide in and out of different roles until I discovered the one that fit me best. -Deuce, (183)

heartbreaking matter indifference
No matter how interminable something feels, there is always, always an ending. Sometimes that's good, and sometimes it's bad; sometimes it's a matter of indifference, and sometimes it's heartbreaking, and your life is never the same thereafter.
men portrayed prizes women won
Too often, women are portrayed in two ways: as prizes to be won by men or as damsels in distress.
