I have spent my whole life looking for a place that my life wasn't a problem, where I wasn't in the way. Books are that place. On my bookshelf I have a many different stories, worlds and people. Its the same thing with writing. I take myself to another world. I don't have to be me. I can control everything and the world-my world- that I write is my own. My own actions. My own feelings. My own thoughts. They may just be fiction to you, but to me it is so  much more.
