"I intend the following letter to be not some self-indulgent “public press release” or anything as pretentious as that. On the contrary, it is simply a statement for my very small, yet loyal fan base (for whom I am very appreciative) to get caught up on what I am doing professionally and publicly as I continue to journey down the road of life… Most people with an interest in my career have come to understand that I am a bit of a recluse and that I keep my life and decisions fairly private. However, there are quite a few people who have supported me in spirit for many years now, and they deserve a heads-up."
