The word “power” is most often associated with fantasy or science fiction. Reality rarely caters to the mystical components of our minds.

I am frequently asked many questions about the writing process. These inquiries arise, no doubt because my novel, The Celestine Prophecy, was a successful first book by an unknown author.
