My sole focus as far back as I can remember was all about my dream to become a singer.

It has been a dream of mine to be a singer, and now I'm living this dream, singing some beautiful songs and winning people's hearts with my voice.

Making music all the time was my dream.

That's always been a dream for me, to be able to collaborate and make music with the people that inspired you to make music.

I went from sort of trying to get work to all of a sudden being signed up for the next few years on something, and something of this scale with some of the best people in the business involved, acting and directing. It was a dream.

All these interviews I'm doing - this is the kind of stuff that I was dreaming about doing when I was younger. I was praying for people to want to write about me. I wanted people to hear my music. I wanted to perform. I wanted to be on billboards.

I'm blessed to be living this dream of writing and singing, but that's not the real dream I had. The real dream was to make enough money to take care of all the pain and suffering that my mother has been through.

Though I played classical piano since age 5 and sang in a cappella groups, being an artist didn't seem like something I was talented enough to do full time. So I kind of buried that dream.

My dream was to be known as a writer and to be able to produce at least one book that would be read by people. That dream came true with the publication of my first novel - and all the rest has been a sweet bonus.

My dream was, and always had been, to write a book. To be a writer.
