I've been daydreaming for as long as I can remember, and as an author, I can share those dreams with others.  When looking at an ink pen, I thought it could be a space ship, and the clip to hold it on a shirt pocket was the location of the bridge.  I got so much homework in school because I was on a mission to a distant world instead of studying.  If I had only known I was going to be a writer, I would've paid more attention in English class.
