As a teenager I started painting and playing guitar...Music has been my playmate, my lover, and my crying towel...This song ("Until It's Time for You To Go") popped into my head while I was falling in love with someone I knew couldn't stay with me. The words are about honesty and freedom inside the heart.

I'm trying to entice people, and sometimes my information is very hard hitting. So I've always wanted to have a soft approach.

I really work hard to shape the song so that it's attractive... You don't want to give people the information in an enema.

I had a teacher's degree and a degree in Oriental Philosophy from the University of Massachusetts. I thought I was going to India to study but all of a sudden, I had a career in music. It really surprised me.

Another time factor is output: proofing and printing. That is, getting your work out of the computer and onto paper and having it satisfy you. It can be time consuming and expensive.

That is, an artist who creates lots of work probably experiences prolific days and slower days.

Everybody's creative. We create our songs and our paintings, our families and our children. Every one of us is on the cutting edge of the future.
