Quote by Mark M. Bello

“Hey, Jack? Think back for a second. Did you see or hear a boat or any type of motor that evening, like immediately before the explosion?” “I can’t remember. I was too busy doing what my mother always told me to do.” “What was that?” “Go jump in the lake.”

It's just something I do because not writing, as I've found, is so much worse.”
