As an athlete, you choose your sport and are drawn into it but your passion should never be driven by fame and fortune but a desire to create something special that people will always remember.

I never had a serious injury that kept me out of a big competition. Now everyone has injuries - to their feet or their knees or their backs.

When you see the audiences and the smiling faces at the shows it really makes up for the work that you put in. I have a job I really love so whatever hecticness comes up - I'll just deal with it.

I skated in ice shows all over Europe and South Africa for 20 years. I love to ice skate.

I am thrilled to get the chance to write comics - and to tell Forgotten Realms tales, to boot!

I've never been in a competition before, and I said I'm going to go. I think - I just love to sing.
