| Introduction | I have been a writer for as long as I can remember, spinning stories that are meaningful to me in some way. Most of them contain some fantasy element, which is maybe one way I escape the everyday. I grew up in Kentucky, went to college in Ohio, and have moved more times than I can count since then. I have a persistent restlessness, which continually tempts me in the direction of the open road or the airport.

Of course it is. Don't your shoes have soles?
