What is the aim or goal of your writing: I write because I'm a storyteller! I have always told stories- verbally, in print, in song. It's my personal creative outlet. I attribute my success to three things: I continually study the craft, I don't give up and am infinitely patient, and I don't take criticism personally. Instead, I use it as a roadmap to improvement. I subscribe to the cliché: When you're green, you're growing. When you're ripe, you rot. I see writing as a continual journey of learning and exploration.
