Growing Up, I Never Gave A Thought

Living Gives You A Better Understanding Of Life. I Would Hope That My Characters Have Become Deeper And More Rounded Personalities. Wider Travels Have Given Me Considerably Greater Insight Into How Cultural Differences Affect Not Only People, But Politics And Art.

I See The Jedi Mission As Giving Up A Normal Life In Exchange For Protecting The Innocent. It's A Life Of Sacrifice. There Are Rewards, But Also A Certain Degree Of Sterility.

I Hear Entire Symphonies, Oratorios, In My Head, But I Can't Write A Note.

We're All Nothing But Unified Arrangements Of Atoms And Particles, Drifting Around, Enjoying Consciousness Every Now And Then For A Second Or So Before Splitting Up To Become Bits And Pieces Of Trees And Stars And French Fries.

Besides The Mistakes That Are Pointed Out, I Love The Way Readers Become Involved With The Characters. When Readers Start Asking About Character Motivations Instead Of Concentrating On The Special Effects, It Means You're Connecting With Them On A Personal Level.
