3 Quotes by Wendy Jean

Mama always did tell a good story, built a solid background, then deftly lead her engrossed listener through a series of doorways, enticing them in before delivering the coup de grâce.

The stories, though, they were all mine.

I sit in the front seat listening to the hum of the engine with a kind of dread, not for what Mama will say but for what she won't. For the gap she will leave for me to fill.
