    But most authors, when asked, will tell you about the works of complete strangers that give them the most inspiration. People respected for their work because they knew precisely that – how to put words on a page that would take root in the souls of readers. Communicate big ideas across vast and unknown distances with shocking clarity.

    I enjoy the part where I take a rough draft and shine it up… The finishing. The top coat. Tease out the story from all the ideas. Part exploration, part investigation, it’s a reminder how stories are everywhere if you just look hard enough…

    We’ve survived.

    If you recall, us southerners purchased a property up north. Far north. About as far as you can go before we have to change citizenship.
