Since I currently write part-time, that results in a slow process. It can take three hours to write three paragraphs, which is often all the time I have in several days. But if I have several hours available, the next paragraphs come more quickly. Often I will finish a writing session thinking "I didn't see that coming at all!"(less)

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

It is our habit as humans to order experiences into stories, then into axions, and finally into myth. Creating an imaginary world allows me to create a playground to explore this process, with limited risk of accidentally offending the beliefs of readers in our world.
But, of course, in order to have my fun, I try to work hard to engage my readers in an exciting, believable story. That should be any novelist's primary goal. If I am able to shed a little light on the human condition as a result (and let's face it, all good stories, whether they are about wizards or rabbits or galaxy-spanning minds, are really about humans) then so much the better.(less)

It has been a while. Like you, I have been preoccupied with how our world has been changing. I hope that I will be seen by my descendents as remaining on the right side of humans and history. At the same time, I have been thinking about my own interactions.

It took me a long time to understand the true message in the story of the prodigal son. It wasn’t for lack of hearing it, I grew up in a church
