Kyra Wallace asked Francisco X. Stork:

Why did you want to become a writer? more importantly what do you find so inspiring about writing?

Francisco X. Stork Hi Kyra, thank you for your question and I'm sorry it too me so long to get back to you. I always forget to look in the place where the questions from readers appear. I always liked making up stories to myself and others and pretending I was this or that as a child. Writing is a good way to continue with this pleasure without being locked up in some insane asylum! Writing is just a way to follow the nagging urge to express coupled with the discipline necessary to turn that expression into communication, into something that is meaningful to others. What is inspiring about writing is all that I learn and discover about myself, about life, as I write. It is also, when done correctly and in the right spirit, a way of loving.
