#authorship

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

"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."

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

"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."

"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.."
