Freelance writer Tim Hornyak is the author of 'Loving the Machine: The Art and Science of Japanese Robots.' He anticipates that the family robot will become a reality in Japan
Tim Hornyak lives by a maxim. "You have to keep doing leaps of faith," he said. "You can be bowled over by insecurity -- that's something I've observed. But you can be creative. I'd like to encourage others to take their leaps of faith."
That is a brave precept from someone who lives by freelance writing. "You have five or six balls juggling at one time," he said. "You don't know the next chapter. It's a bit of a mixture coming at you. I'd like to find myself in a more stable situation, but I think I'll continue the way I am for quite a while. It makes it worthwhile to try."
