Hizuru Minakata
The Reclusive Author Behind the Mask
I write your truths so I don’t have to live them.
I’ve learned more about love from a passing glance on the train than most do in a lifetime of dating. I’ve grieved more through my characters than I ever have in person. My apartment is quiet, my pen is loud, and my readers think they know me. They don’t. But they might recognize themselves.
What I'm Into: strangers' faces, the smell of fresh ink, writing through the night, bookstore window displays, silent conversations with my editor
