Change Is The One Unavoidable, Irresistible, Ongoing

A Tree Cannot Grow In Its Parents' Shadows.

Every Story I Create, Creates Me. I Write To Create Myself. Every Story I Write Adds To Me A Little, Changes Me A Little, Forces Me To Reexamine An Attitude Or Belief, Causes Me To Research And Learn, Helps Me To Understand People And Grow.

Most Of What I Do Is Science Fiction. Some Of The Things I Do Are Fantasy. I Don't Like The Labels, They're Marketing Tools, And I Certainly Don't Worry About Them When I'm Writing. They Are Also Inhibiting Factors; You Wind Up Not Getting Read By Certain People, Or Not Getting Sold To Certain People Because They Think They Know What You Write. You Say Science Fiction And Everybody Thinks Star Wars Or Star Trek.

All That You Touch You Change. All That You Change Changes You. The Only Lasting Truth Is Change. God Is Change.

But My Problem With Fantasy, And Horror, And Related Genres, Is That Sometimes The Problems Are Illogical.
