Where do book ideas come from? September 18th, 2014

During a flight from Moscow to Kazakhstan, it struck me how beautiful the Tien Shan Mountains looked all decked in white and how ugly they could become with global warming.

Roger’s Recent Updates

George Carlin
“The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time. What do you get at the end of it? A Death! What’s that, a bonus? I think the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live in an old age home. You get kicked out when you’re too young, you get a gold watch, you go to work. You work forty years until you’re young enough to enjoy your retirement. You do drugs, alcohol, you party, you get ready for high school. You go to grade school, you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last nine months floating …and you finish off as an orgasm.”
George Carlin

Anne Ursu
“Kids can handle a lot more than you think they can. It's when they get to be grown up that you have to start worrying.”
Anne Ursu, Breadcrumbs

“All I want is a best friend whom I can't wait to kiss again.”

“You have to write the book that wants to be written. And if the book will be too difficult for grown-ups, then you write it for children.”
