"Don't write for anyone other than yourself. Read extensively but don't think too much about expectations or markets or what is selling. Once you give yourself to the expectations of others, you lose authenticity and you subvert your voice. Speak your piece and do it in the way that feels true to you — and even if no one ever reads it, you will be fulfilled as an artist."

One of my favourite things to do when people realize I am 51 when they game with me, is to show my cousins Patricia & Vivian Ramos’ pics from my Nevis visit to demonstrate how the family has VAMPIRE genes; people always go ballistic when they find out how old they are:
