R.F. Kuang
“I was going through some serious writer’s block last year, feeling so burnt out and stressed, and writing didn’t feel magical any more… Then I read Piranesi by Susanna Clarke. It’s playful and has this constant note of optimism and wonder about the world which encouraged me to start writing again.”↗
