D. W. St. John

Author profiles are written by the authors themselves. Did you know that? That's why in author bio's, authors never 'live' anywhere---they 'reside.' Sounds more profound, doesn't it? But, honestly, they just live somewhere.

Authors are neither more clever nor more interesting than you are, they just have to pretend to be, because who would pay to read a book by someone as ordinary as they are?

Why do we write? Every writer has a different reason.

We want people to think we're smart.

We're not comfortable talking to people directly. We can write all the clever stuff we could never think of in real life.

We want to share our dreams.

We want to make a few shekels.

The more naive of us may want to change the world.

That's all.

Be well and may reading be a great joy to you.
