Personality

Quotes from others about the person

• “Writing remains one of the freest modes of expression, and for that reason, it will always be important to me. No committee. board or official can censor your thoughts, your feelings or your knowledge. The writing process and all of the insights, imaginary scenarios and fantastical designs that go into the making of a good piece of writing are delightful experiences in and of themselves, a type of creative play savored by writers." - Lynda Boren
