Spilling

She is, by far, the most curious person I know. Her curiosity swallows her up and defines her. She questions herself as well as the world around her, with a voracious and seemingly-endless fervor, searching for answers to everything, from the mundane to the profound, refusing to stop until she has found what she is looking for. Those deep questions that most of us donÕt have time to approach, seem to get tangled up inside of her, holding her hostage, forcing her to introspect indefinitely until she finds the key. As a result, thereÕs a maturity in her writing that is far beyond her years. SheÕs the friend that gives you that crucial piece of advice you needed to make an important decision, the older sibling telling you anecdotes that perfectly illuminate your own path, the mother whose words somehow make confusing issues seem clear-cut and unmistakable. In a culture obsessed with finding wisdom in simplicity, Cassie has given us all exactly what we wanted. ÑJustin Phillips (Crywolf)
