I've always been a very prolific writer.

I feel like, in some ways, I'm just a journalist.

Live well. Sing out, sing loud, and sing often. And God bless the child that's got a song.

Your own voice is the voice that carries you through life the best.

Being a good songwriter means paying attention and sticking your hand out the window to catch the song on the way to someone else's house!

I was always more interested in story songs, things with a point of view... and things that informed me.

It was nice to focus on things outside of my body. Music has always done that for me.
