“I was writing at the time, and I thought, “Well, I need something to pay the bills, and I’ll just hang on to this until my writing takes off, or I actually get off my butt and get a master’s degree in English and maybe teach somewhere.” Then twelve years later, I was still there,” remarks Yancey in a detailed interview given to.

To be honest, I felt an emotional connection with the author, because of an interview I watched with him. If this book review turns out to be an unusually positive one, please do not resort to thinking I received financial benefit from Rick Yancey.
