“All stories come from the writer's heart, and all hearts speak the same language, an ancient wordless language, and for the writer, this is the struggle, to translate the wordless into words.”
J. Carter Swift

“Why a writer? I should have been a surgeon or a mechanic, for surely a scalpel or wrench couldn't cause me the anguish words do.”
J. Carter Swift

“As a writer, I've found there is only one refuge from reality, and that is to wedge myself into the space between my words and think only of my story until I forget who it is I am.”
