What is the aim or goal of your writing:
I write because I am curious, because I want to understand everything - graffiti art, string theory, the Delphic Oracle. My research often turns up fascinating information that I use as "background" material. My favorite stories are those that both entertain and educate, so I try to do that (guietly) in mine. I attribute my success to determination and the continued passion for wordsmithing.
