Getting to the heart of my subject is very hard work. That's the worst part of being a writer. Getting started with a new poem or essay is also difficult.

Why You Should read this Biography

I am a poet, having published 3 books of poetry, a children's book of poetry, and my poems appear in national and state magazines and anthologies. But, by chance, I met a woman with a story to tell.

Elie Wiesel
“The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. The opposite of art is not ugliness, it's indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it's indifference.”
Elie Wiesel

“We should all do what, in the long run, gives us joy, even if it is only picking grapes or sorting the laundry.”
EB Whitel

Nate Pyle
“We've been taught a woman's body will cause men to sin. We're told that if a woman shows too much of her body men will do stupid things. Let's be clear: a woman's body is not dangerous to you. Her body will not cause you harm. It will not make you do stupid things. If you do stupid things it is because you chose to do stupid things.”
