I grew up in a place where a lot of my friends had horses, so I grew up riding. But I'm not an expert.

I have a great-great-great-grandfather who was a Confederate cavalry colonel, and I still have his military composite photo on my wall. The chemicals in the photo tint have changed over the years to the point that he looks green. One of my family members apparently still has the piece of paper that listed every thing in his pocket when he got shot.

I feel there’s no need to overstate.

In the last two or three decades, there's been a feminization of the man in popular media that I've never really understood.

I love getting paid to ride a horse.

You don't need to like your protagonists.

I like my work to stand on its own as much as possible.
