"I write the first draft hot, with the fire of passion. I let the words course through my veins and typing fingertips, without interruption or thought. Then, I let the manuscript cool down - I put it away for hours, days, and sometimes weeks, so I can come back to it with a renewed perspective. Finally, I put on my logical, thinking editor's hat as I excise the fat from the bone; that is, editing carefully and precisely. What I have left, I suppose, is the best God-given work I can do," said Avila.

Views

Quotations: "My inspiration for writing self-help psychology/spirituality comes from my own quest to find the meaning in life. All of my life I have felt different, somewhat isolated and alone. As I grew older I realized that there were millions of people who also felt the same way - the shy, introverted, deep-thinking people who pondered the meaning of their lives. My words are for these profound and often very caring people, to help them live lives of excellence, love, and connection. That is why I write, and I love it more each day."

Personality

Alexander Avila commented to CA: "My primary motivation for being a writer is to inspire others and help them live to their fullest potential. I believe writing, at its best, is a supremely spiritual act in which writers impart their very essence to help enliven the lives of their readers."
