Write a lot and hit the streets. A writer who doesn't keep up with what's out there ain't gonna be out there.

Writing is one of the ways I participate in transformation.

Words are to be taken seriously. I try to take seriously acts of language. Words set things in motion.

Not all speed is movement.

The most effective way to do it is to do it.

The dream is real my friends. The failure to realize it is the only reality.

Our lives preserved. How it was and how it will be. Passing it along in the relay. That is what I work to do: to produce stories that save our lives.

Reappraise the past reevaluate where we've been clarify where we are and predict or anticipate where we are headed.
