According to his driver’s license, Charlie Sacchetti is 75 years old. In his mind, though, he’s a much younger man, dwelling forever in that magical age on the brink of adulthood, looking at the world through the youthful lens of limitless possibilities. That inner child, he reckons, is “probably between 18 and 21 years old.”
“I like being a kid in my mind,” he said. “I am quite serious about some things but I am also a kid at heart who is a tad devilish, so I have a pretty funny side, too. When I write and I have the opportunity to inject humor in the story, that kid starts typing.”
