    Here it is
    Home spring again
    The soul and spirit
    Mind and matter
    They, our only friend

    Spinning arson fire
    Like a mug of frosty beer
    See the fool's gold lyres
    That are singing in my ear

    The sandman of our time
    It's the greed that pays
    For we are of the universe
    And so are our piddling ways

    Greed it pays for the sands of time
    And it makes the day
    It's only a survival skill
    And from what we understand
    it's the only way

    You got a Jaguar
    I've got a Benz
    Ten diamond rings
    And a magnifying lens

    It's the cause of the explosion
    My mind's utter devotion
    It's what brings us down
    The cause of all commotion

    WDM: I've been writing since I was nine. For a person with speech difficulties, writing was a way of communicating easily. It was my hobby more than a way of making a living. I'm surprised to actually be able to make money doing this thing I love.

    TRC: Inspired by the success of your first picture book, WHERE DOES THE DAY GO, you went on to produce more books for children. Was it difficult at first finding a Amistad Press for your work?

    WDM: I didn't consider it difficult to find a Amistad Press, although I had quite a few rejections. I was used to rejections and didn't expect a quick acceptance. After the second or third book it began to be easy.

    TRC: How has your life changed since gaining acclaim as an author?

    WDM: The biggest change is that I don't have to leave home to go to work. There's a lot of boring moments in this job, but lots of excitement as well. Also, this is one of those jobs where people tell you what they think of your performance via reviews, awards, etc.

    TRC: Where do you do your best creative thinking? Is there any particular place that tends to inspire you?

    WDM: My best ideas come as I lie in bed in the mornings after a good night's sleep.

    TRC: What's a typical work day like for you?

    WDM: I usually wake up around four in the morning. Lying in bed until four thirty, I consider what I want to do for the day. By five I'm up and about, and often engaged in a fight with Askia, my cat. We have differences of opinion about how soon he needs to be fed in the mornings. Five thirty finds me at the computer working to complete the seven pages, which will be my day's work. By eight, when my wife finally gets out of bed, I've done my seven pages for the day. The rest of the day I'm fairly casual about planning new work or revising a work already completed. I also like to chase Askia, which he doesn't tolerate very well. If he hides I'll spend some time aggravating my wife, who does tolerate it quite well.

    TRC: We know you spend a lot of time researching and writing, but how do you spend your free time? Do you have any hobbies?

    WDM: I play flute for fun and do crossword puzzles. Sometimes I write short stories simply because I like to write them. I've also written short plays, which I will probably never publish. My major hobby, writing, is also my job.

    TRC: With over 30 published books and numerous literary awards, your writing career has proved enormously successful. What advice would you give to kids out there hoping to be writers someday?

    WDM: What I earnestly believe is that writing can be learned by anyone truly interested in language and literature. The trick is not to wait for inspiration, but rather to train yourself to sit down and write on a regular basis. Writers don't fail because they don't write well, they fail because they don't produce. My advice to young writers is to read as much good literature as they can so they will experience the best uses of language and the most sensitive storytelling, and then train themselves to write on a regular basis.

    TRC: And finally, if you could sum up the message carried through all of your work in one sentence, how would it read?

    WDM: We are responsible for our own lives, and fulfill our lives when we look to understand the lives of others.

    Thank you for the overwhelmingly flattering comment. Anchorman is in fact full of life altering quotes! You must have studied up on your HTML coding, either that or your methods mirror mine and you just found a better place to rip codes from. Anyways have a good one.
