There's something about writers that fascinates me, not least as many are so good not just at the fine art of writing well, in a mechanical sense, but also that they are able to express occasionally vague thoughts or emotions or moods in a way that I can't! Story or plot is one thing, but I love when a writer says something that I probably have felt or now agree with, even if I did not think of it in that way before. An ability to articulate actual "life" itself into meaningful words that are readily readable is a gift, and one that I am often in awe of. Hence my delight in having Kevin Mc on EU. Supporting a writer as he/she nucleates a new book, digging deep in the writing phase, and seeing them through the entire process to a finished product feels so "right". As in the right thing to do. It is often a thankless and apparently lonely pursuit and challenge, to write, but it's a task that has a remarkable outcome for the individual: a new book! In life one is supposed to choose one's battles, and so EU has chosen to support and promote Kevin Mc, who we feel has got potential greatness in his words, and who simply must be exposed to a wider audience. That's it and that's all. It's just the right thing for me to do, this wonderful adventure that is EU! - Cristina
