What inspires you to write?
Music and poetry. I love language and love to get lost a world created by words.
Tell us about your writing process.
In a story nothing happens by accident. First I have to have a special idea. And then I'll think about it for years. And then finally I'll plot it. And several months later I'll write it. And then I'll leave the manuscript for a year. And finally final–I'll come back to it and read it without remembering any of it. And then I'll edit it.
For Fiction Writers: Do you listen (or talk to) to your characters?
My characters talk to me, if I did a good job imagining them fully beforehand. And if they don't talk, I know I'm not ready to write about them.
What advice would you give other writers?
For me, reading a lot in preparation for becoming a writer was most helpful.
How did you decide how to publish your books?
I first tested the waters with literary agents. But I decided to self-publish in the end. It gave me more creative control. After all, I am not writing in order to make money but because it makes me happy.
What do you think about the future of book publishing?
There's a lot of good mixed in with the bad. Author's can reach out to readers directly. A niche book can find an audience. But the marketplace has a stronger voice now. Books don't have to pass a quality bar, so long as readers are willing to read them. But literature isn't easy to read, it's not fun in a meaningless way. So what will happen to literature if the bar for success is a sales ranking?
