Who was your most influential teacher? Why?
Fred Stefon, my professor at Penn State-Wilkes-Barre. We chatted together, we discussed books, ideas, and current events, and he had faith in me when I didn’t have faith in myself.

I speak about the upcoming indictment at Donald Trump, the racism he’s instigating, and to urge support for Amazon workers.

What tattoo do you want and where would you put it?
I have a tattoo, a Star of David, on my upper right arm. I’m planning on a Hamsa, on my upper left arm.
What is one word that describes you?
Advancing.

When I started my writing career, someone said of my, “He’s a good writer.” Just to be referred to as a good man is plenty for me.
You’re going on a cross-country trip. Airplane, train, bus, car, or bike?

I can’t give a rating, but I’ve had plenty of self doubts in my life, but I do the task and I get it done.
What makes you most anxious?
Like millions of Americans, I worry about getting by financially between my payments. I also worry about my health, and how it’s going. I particularly worry about the state of the nation, if it’s becoming more fascistic.
