I have the most devoted and loyal following. I could probably type up my grocery list and they'd all want to read it. I love that they're willing to let me go wherever I need to go as an author, and they're happy to come along for the ride as the reader.

Would you give up your vengeance against someone you hate if it meant saving someone you love? Would you want your dreams to come true if it meant granting your enemy's dying wish?

When you're different, sometimes you don't see the millions of people who accept you for what you are. All you notice is the person who doesn't.

Don't pay back in kind, pay back in kindness. If someone does wrong by you, do right by them.

Music therapy, to me, is music performance without the ego. It's not about entertainment as much as its about empathizing. If you can use music to slip past the pain and gather insight into the workings of someone else's mind, you can begin to fix a problem.

The act of reading is a partnership. The author builds a house, but the reader makes it a home.

I have always written about subjects that engage me - questions I can't answer myself. They apparently tend to be big moral and ethical issues!
