I like Edwin Arlington Robinson's adage that writers live in a kind of spiritual kindergarten, where they run around trying to spell out the meaning of life, but always with the wrong set of blocks. That's the category I best fit into. I'm always in search of that one idea, the one story or vision that can communicate my personal truth to someone else. It's a quest that never seems to reach a finish line. I like the challenge and perpetual restlessness it creates in my mind.
