“Books are like puppies, they wait for you with unconditional love and welcome you back whenever you return.”

“Sometimes the most frightening of thoughts can be found hiding among the shadows of our own minds.” ― J.D. Barker, Forsaken
“At one point, all authors are unknown until the day they are not.” ― J.D. Barker, Forsaken
“Sometimes our deepest fears are the ones we keep closest to our hearts.” ― J.D. Barker, Dracul
“Just when I think I have nothing to say, the characters start to speak. Writing is funny like that.” ― J.D. Barker, Forsaken
“We're going to have such fun, you and I.” ― J.D. Barker, The Fourth Monkey
“You can't play God without being acquainted with the devil” ― J.D. Barker (author), The Fifth to Die
“I’ve been told I write literary popcorn, and I’m fine with that. I always have been. When you read one of my books, you’re never going to find some deep-seated social message or moral code…. I literally get paid to make shit up. Do you really want to take advice from me?” ― J.D. Barker, A Caller's Game
“If you don't try, you've already failed.” ― J.D. Barker
“Writing can take you to places you’ve never been, introduce you to people you’ve never met, take you back to when you first saw those shadows in your room, when you first heard the sounds mumbling ever so softly from your closet, and it can show you what uttered them. It can scare the hell out of you, and that’s when you know it’s good.” ― J.D. Barker
“Like life, there is much we do not understand about death.” ― Dacre Stoker & J.D. Barker, Dracul
“Growing up, my parents wouldn’t allow a tv in the house. Instead, we took field trips to the library. I remember being eight years old and looking up at all those shelves and wondering how long it would take to read everything. The idea of new worlds, places, and people in every single book all stacked neatly and waiting made the place seem magical.” ― J.D. Barker
“Self-preservation and fear are two of the strongest instincts of the human condition. Porter wasn’t sure he wanted to meet the man who possessed neither.” ― J.D. Barker, The Fifth to Die

“The wind howled in defiance as viscous clouds suffocated the moon, taking the night as their own.” ― J.D. Barker, Forsaken
“Le han quitado tantos trozos de cerebro que podría dedicarse a la política.” ― J.D. Barker, The Fifth to Die
“Mizaru significa «no veas el mal», Kikazaru significa «no escuches el mal», e Iwazaru significa «no pronuncies el mal».” ― J.D. Barker, El cuarto mono
“I often heard the fall winds whistle past my room, but I had never once stood in their midst; I found it exhilarating. The forest was alive around us; from creatures to the swaying trees, I felt the forces of nature in the night air, the delicate balance of life and death.” ― Barker, J.D., Stoker, Dacre
“Maybe we should flip for it. I had to open the last one.” “No, I insist. I saw Seven — if Gwyneth’s head is in there, the image will be stuck in my mind for months. This is all you. Be a man.” ― J.D. Barker, The Fourth Monkey
