Is that your real name?
Stephen is my given name, but it felt like wearing somebody else’s clothes. I’m sure Sting and L.L. felt the same way.
When did you change it?
When I was 23. I’m 47 now.
Got any kids?
I one day dream to.
What would you name them?
Thoren. It’s an Egyptian scribe name. I’d thought Empress was cute for a girl, but that may be too sassy. I like more balance.
Why not name her Balance?
You know what? Thank you. I love that. Balance. That’s beautiful. That’s her.
