“Feelings of wonder showered through his mind like stardust on ancient oceans. - THE SPIRIT GUIDE”

“I may write about immortal characters and it might seem glamorous and elegant, but I don't crave immortality. I think an eternal life of loss is more what being an immortal is about. Being chained to the physical world leaves no aspiration for the spiritual, and everyone who is mortal leaves forever, casting the immortal in solitude and desperation for companionship.”

“I don't sit down and force words. I let them flow naturally. Makes for a much better story, I feel. Some days I write a couple hundred, others a couple thousand. There is no standard, and I still have an annual release.”

“Finishing a manuscript is an achievement. Writers are common, but authors are rare. It's fun to talk about a book, even to start a book. But then the writer must work. Persevere and overcome barriers to success. If they reach the end...they have achieved what countless cannot.”

“The Mortician is the most personal book that I've ever written. I spent a long time with it. I spent a long time recovering from it. But I have to say that it's given me a great sense of direction. It's truly been a gift.”
