"I always try and see the best of all possible worlds. To me life is a joy and possibilities are endless, and I believe every single human is capable of great things. So naturally, encouraging Jimmy to write lyrics was my first instinct. He's had a wild life. And the more stories I heard, the more I felt he could spin all this beautiful chaos into poetry." - Shooter Jennings. "Throughout my Hollywood career people encouraged me to write a book about my life. Celebrity "tell-alls" never appealed to me though, because I don't care about frivolous things. I yearned to share stories that moved me in my life, authentic tales that lifted my spirits or broke my heart. When the great Shooter Jennings once casually suggested I write song lyrics, I was skeptical. When I put pen to paper, however, these whispers from the heart expressed themselves in ways I never imagined. And when Shooter then put them to music, my life changed forever. I can't wait to share them with you." - James Woods
