People always have something to say about what you do and how you do it.

I take what people feel and think, especially when it's different from, very seriously, and I find it liberating.

Few writers are willing to admit writing is autobiographical.

I been saying it for years: church is full of sneaky men posing as honest souls, and they are perpetuators our here looking for women just like you, with giant holes in your hearts, and they can smell when you got a good job and when you lonely as hell.

Write from your heart, and God will take care of the rest.
