STRAY by Mark Matthews
<img src="">What inspired you to write your book? The setting of the story is 100% true. For many years, I worked at a substance abuse treatment center that shared a parking lot with an animal shelter. At night as I'd walk to my car to go home for the day, I could hear the dogs barking across the parking lot, and then a strange analogy hit me. The distress of the clients I had been listening to and dealing with all day was not that much different than the animals at the shelter. … [Read more...] about STRAY by Mark Matthews

NaNoWriMo Tips from Cheryl Mahoney
What year(s) did you participate in NaNoWriMo? 2011 Tell us if you won or not, and what you learned from the experience I successfully reached the 50,000 word mark--and then did a sort of half-NaNo to write another 26,000 words in December, to have a completed first draft by the end of the year. I'd say I had two big take-away lessons. One, I CAN keep writing if I set my mind to it. I'd frequently hit a point in the day's writing when I felt like I had written "enough," i.e., I'd used … [Read more...] about NaNoWriMo Tips from Cheryl Mahoney
