“Well, when I started high school, I couldn’t wait to get out of Dillon. I thought that every book I read was like a rung on a ladder that I built to escape this town that was all about high school football and nothing else. And now that I’m actually getting close to leaving… I’m starting to appreciate that I was shaped by my town… that I have a different viewpoint than every other person… I guess what I’m trying to say is that I’m surprised by how happy I am to be from where I’m from.”
