What is the aim or goal of your writing: 2nd ed. says, "I also edit Window in the Stone. My publishing company, Free Books Inc., is the extension of my philosophy. I think education should not be sold so my books are free. My aim on the philosophical--metaphysical level is to make people aware that while they are both good and evil, they are basically GOOD not evil: but moreover that they are always in control whenever they decide one way or the other."
