Quotes by Stephen P. Tryon (?)

“It's a privilege to share ideas by writing. Some ideas inspire and others entertain. My favorite authors combine those elements, and that is what I am striving for in my writing. I am definitely a work in progress as far as my ability to bring inspiration and entertainment together.”
― Stephen P. Tryon
