VanBaale, Kali

Comments from the author about writing:
Through trial and error, I've learned that writing must be an equal, three-part balance of creativity, craft and discipline. No one part will singularly carry a finished work of art. As to the question of why I writer, I'll shamelessly steal the perfect answer from Isaac Asner, "I write for the same reason I breathe, because I have to."
