It's just a whole different thing, and it's just that my life has been a blessing, and I thank god every day for the gifts that he has given me and for my daughter and to be able to watch her grow and be a part of her joys and her excitement and what she wants to do in life. ↗

This is a gift. This is a gift from God. It's really like the old Biblical passage that talks about your body being a temple. That's not to say that I've never done anything but I've never abused myself. Never gone over the top for a long period of time. ↗

I started writing while I was a little boy. Maybe it's because I was reading a lot of books I admired, and thought that I would like to write something like that someday. Also, my love for good writing pushed me. ↗

I defend both the freedom of expression and society's right to counter it. I must pay the price for differing. It is the natural way of things. ↗

I didn't make any money from my writing until much later. I published about 80 stories for nothing. I spent on literature. ↗
