Why Keep Writing When the Whole World is On Fire Around You?
You’ve seen the news, right? Like this one. Or this one. And this one? You understand the sheer scope of the multitudes of nightmares unfolding around us and the depravity and ghoulishess at the heart of these tragedies. Right?

The Short Story That Changed Me Irrevocably
One of my favorite stories of all time is The Foghorn, a short story written by Ray Bradbury. Summary Bradbury's sea monster, perhaps the last of its kind, inhabits the depths of the ocean surfacing only to respond to the nostalgic call of the foghorn. It cries out in futility, trying to communicate with the foghorn which it has mistaken for another of its kind. Eventually, perhaps disappointed, the monster sinks back down into the deep and swims away all alone.

The Quiet One
I remember sitting on my uncle’s verandah as a kid, watching Star Trek through the living room’s glass-paned window. I remember the voice of Captain Jean Luc Picard speaking of exploring strange, new worlds, seeking out new civilizations, and boldly going where no one had gone before.
