I am a great admirer of the outlaw writers, Hunter S. Thompson, Shirley Jackson, Jack Kerouac, and Edgar Allen Poe. Authors who write without fear. That is what I aspire to, and if I touch a few raw societal nerves along the way, so be it. As Stephen King famously said, 'Fiction is the truth inside the lie.' I've never been frightened by a lie, but truth, that scares me to death."
