On writing...
"The most challenging thing about writing a book is holding the strands of your life together while doing it.
Real passion has a lot to do with suffering and sacrifice. You bare your soul and put it on an aluminum dissection tray, a vivisection spread open and left on display. People may like it, hate it, or ignore it. It’s you, unapologetically."
