About our people pages:
Because many visitors have asked for more information about particular people whose words appear on the site, we'll try to give you as much information as we can about individuals.  The Amazon links should give you access to works by the author, though at times they'll display other books if the author has written an essay or introduction for those books.

  
I spent most of my life waiting for my turn to speak.  If you're at all like me, you'll be pleasantly amazed at the softer reactions and looks of surprise as you let others completely finish their thought before you begin yours.  Often, you will be allowing someone to feel listened to for the very first time.
