Don't aspire. If you are a writer, you will write. If you aspire to be published that is a different thing than being an aspiring writer. Publishing requires different talents than writing, and that is not what this question is about. If you aspire, you aren't a writer. If you write, you are a writer.

I am working on editing a second book by my friend Mark Fults, psychic and author of CHATTANOOGA CHILLS. I am also working on some projects of my own but I have difficulty talking about my work in progress. It is fragile while it is in chrysalis.

Everything inspires me. The feel of the air around me, the sound of trees, old houses, old stories, abandoned trains and railroad tracks, starlight, ghosts walking. The challenge is to pull it all together.

MAGGIE BOO began as a vivid dream where I was flying over the Green Swamp on my broom. A little girl was waiting for me at the window of an attic room at the top of a very old house. When I woke up it was obvious that they were in the Green Swamp of my earliest memories, and I was so intrigued by the little bit I saw of their lives that I wanted to know the whole story. There was only one way to find out what happened. Write!
