If a man knew what a woman never forgets, he would love her differently.

When I write, I put one foot in front of the other. It's an act of faith. I just follow my heart.

I worry, that we are a people in a process of great transition and we are forgetting what we are connected to. We are losing our frame of reference.

Style is like voice, it grows organically from the truth of one's own life experience. Not in terms of chapters, per se, but in terms of stories. It is the story itself that creates an inherent structure.

To hear something asks very little of us. To listen places our entire being on notice.

Is this the curse of modernity, to live in a world without judgment, without perspective, no context for understanding or distinguishing what is real and what is imagined, what is manipulated and what is by chance beautiful, what is shadow and what is flesh?

This is the sorcery of literature. We are healed by our stories.
