“At the heart of everything I write is a love story.”

“With a pen in my hand I am fearless.”

“If you can dream it, believe it, and are willing to put in the work for it, then you can achieve it!”

“Being self-published makes me no less "published" than the authors who are with publishing companies.”

“Nothing can be done but by inches. I write out my life hour by hour, word by word . . . imagining the existence of something uncreated this poem our lives.”

“You must write, and read, as if your life depended on it.”

“To write as if your life depended on it; to write across the chalkboard, putting up there in public the words you have dredged; sieved up in dreams, from behind screen memories, out of silence-- words you have dreaded and needed in order to know you exist.”
