I wonder how you say goodbye to someone forever?
I think reading is a gift. It was a gift that was given to me as a child by many people, and now as an adult and a writer, I'm trying to give a little of it back to others. It's one of the greatest pleasures I know.
For now, I just want things all safe and familiar. My life may not be perfect, but it is what I have known.

And that although we don't expect that world to collide with our calm, predictable one...well, really, at any moment that is exactly what might happen.
