Keenan says: “It’s our responsibility to exercise our creative muscle and also to understand how to put out the fires that our creative muscles start.
“The army taught me discipline and accountability. I would come to understand that these qualities are just as important as my pen and paper.
“Every choice, for better or for worse, leads to a balance between your head and your heart – between nature and nurture, between experience and intuition. Listen to what your inner voice tells you and trust your path.”
A Perfect Union Of Contrary Things can be pre-ordered via Puscifer’s official website and Amazon.
