"You have what I can afford to give. You are a panhandler, begging for anything, and I am the man walking briskly by, tossing a quarter or so into your paper cup. I can afford to give you this. This does not break me."

"Almost anyone can be an author; the business is to collect money and fame from this state of being."

"When you write a book, you spend day after day scanning and identifying the trees. When you’re done, you have to step back and look at the forest."

"The calling of an author is more than just to entertain, but also to share ones experiences with the world."

"If there's a will, there's a way!I feel larger than LIFE--and look up to the stars who shine down on me and have become my own personal cheerleaders....as my fingers tap on my computer late into the night.."
