1 " The world of a cat is unlike any other. What is seen through their eyes cannot be understood by anyone besides another cat. Their world is filled with secrets and adventures that are always present and forever changing. To look at the world as a cat is to look through the veil of reality. "
― Alex G. Zarate
2 " How do I get inspired? Life. "
3 " The best thing about being an author is the unspoken approval to dream while awake. "
4 " I speak English, bad English, Spanish, Spanglish, Pig-Latin, Gibberish, Mumbling, Double-speak, Sub-text, Body Language and significant glances no one ever sees. Once in a blue moon, I can understand the opposite sex and manage open communication for a while but by the next moon-rise I'm back to being clueless. "
5 " I’m single. Well, no. I’m a writer so I am one person with many others always running around my noggin, so I guess I’m a... plural? "
6 " We are all shaped by the content we absorb. Like a radio tuned into the station of life. When you select the best content, you absorb greatness "
7 " Never fear adversity. Every setback, struggle and storm will add to your focus, strength and wisdom. "
8 " Don't get stuck on labels. Write, edit, publish and promote. You choose which you want to be. You can be an author, a writer, an indie or a bestselling novelist. Be a writer first and let the path you make lead to the goal you set. "
9 " Do not allow doubt, fear or failure to affect your dreams. They are the slippery slopes you must ignore on the path to success. "
10 " I only read books with words on the pages. I'm picky like that. "
11 " There are wonders to behold in our world that few will ever experience…Wonders capable of providing an artist inspiration for a lifetime; Wonders to make the world into a place of beauty, and wonders that show us the connections we all share. We each enter our lives like a drop of water into a still ocean, spreading out with each experience in waves, touching the lives of each and every person we meet; and they, in turn, share their lives and experiences with us. "
12 " I never talk to myself. I talk to the voices in my head, the characters in my stories and, of course, the other-dimensional beings who sometimes swing by on their way to another reality. "
13 " My ideas come from the dark recesses of my mind, reaching out with tendrils of shadow, pulling me in and turning my world into a constantly shifting whirlwind of reality ranging from space exploration and alien worlds to teleporting cats, time travel and mind reading. You know, the usual places. "
