My academic study of religion (Wake Forest, Duke, Princeton) my personal experiences, and being a Baptist minister for 10 years informed much of my book.

I remind myself of what the late, great Russel Baker once said about writing:
"If you haven’t sweated over it, it’s probably not worth it. So it’s always been work. But it’s the kind of work you enjoy having done. The doing of it is hard work. People don’t usually realize what it takes out of you. They just see you sitting there, staring at the wall, and they don’t know that you’re looking for the perfect word to describe a shade of light."
