A dog pours a pitcher of love into the lonesome spots of your life.

When I was young, I was very shy and quiet, because we moved all the time. My dad was in the Navy, so we moved every two years.

Although I always loved reading and putting words on paper, I never thought about becoming a writer until I was twelve.

Other writers definitely influence my writing. What encourages me and inspires me is when I read a good book. It makes me want to be a better writer.

Write every day. Make writing a part of your life, but also dont be afraid of learning from others because I think you can. I still try to think of myself as a beginner because that way I can keep on learning.

Some people are just afraid of what's different. It doesn't mean different is bad. It just means different is different.
