What inspires you to write?
I always have a bit of real life in my stories. People I know or events in my life always find a way into the plot. So if you know me, beware. You might end up in a story.
Tell us about your writing process.
I brainstorm a plot before I begin to write. My sister and I go back and forth adding to a storyline over a bottle of wine or a cup of coffee. We then develop the characters until I know them. Then I begin to write. And it always changes several times before I’m done.
For Fiction Writers: Do you listen (or talk to) to your characters?
I think of music my characters would like and play that when I am writing in their head.
What advice would you give other writers?
Write what makes you happy.
How did you decide how to publish your books?
A small publishing company gave me a start by publishing a short holiday story. Then a UK site published two more of my short stories. From there, I joined anthologies and boxsets with other more prominent authors.
What do you think about the future of book publishing?
I think self-publishing will become a prominent as traditional publishing. I also feel it will get much more stringent and readers will get pickier. Just slapping some words on a page won’t suffice. They will demand quality.
