I am an avid fisherman, and my daily schedule is to write in the morning and then go fishing in the afternoon. In Maine, I fish mostly for stripers, and in the Florida Keys, I go after all kinds of game fish.
I vividly remember my sixth-grade classroom. I remember what it smelled like, where I sat, what I could see out the window, and how I felt about things. Peel away my decrepit middle-aged exterior, and an important part of me is still twelve years old. It helps me when I sit down to write stories for kids.
You don't need a time machine if you know how to remember.
I never had a brian till freak came along..
Do not despair, my friend. Today is theirs, but the future is ours
There is no greater compliment for a writer than to have pleased a troubled child.
