"I love to dream when I'm awake about a thousand different things. I become the star that shines above or like an eagle I take wing.  I fly, I swim, I laugh, I cry.   I observe and then ask, "Why?" I live the life I write about: my pen becomes the wand and my mind creates the backdrop for the character I have donned.  I glide and soar above the earth and swim throughout the ocean.  Then I start another tale - whenever I take notion!
—Bonnie J. Kilburn, Jr.
