I've wanted to be a writer since I was a boy, though it seemed an unlikely outcome since I showed no real talent. But I persevered and eventually found my own row to hoe. Ignorance of other writers' work keeps me from discouragement and I am less well-read than the average bus driver. ↗

My parents were really, really cool about supporting what I wanted to do at a really young age. I think I was about 10 when I caught the bug.

We were sweet, lovely people who wanted to throw out all the staid institutions who placed money and wars above all else. When you're young you think that's how life works. ↗

I always wanted to get married with just candles! I think candlelight is the most beautiful light there is and there's something very spiritual about it. ↗
