I was going to stay home and rest because I came home from work to more work and I was a little hammered. But my Smart Cookie phone rang and I happened to be here (what with the working) so I answered it and it was Leslie and she said, “Hey, you wanna go see [...]

I'm a writer and sometimes I get published, which is a nice thing. I write for joy, I write for money and when I'm very lucky, both things happen at the same time.
