Creating a fun world to escape to.

Sometimes I talk it through with another writer. Or I run and think about where I am stuck. Other times I just sit down and push through.

Just start. Get feedback (join a writer's group) and don't be sensitive.

"Flower Girl." It is not exactly a sequel, but the characters come from my first book and it has the same setting (NYC) and some of the same characters.

Reading and daydreaming. I have been an avid reader for many years and always wanted to write, but did not have many ideas. I just started writing and am a big believer in "The ideas flow when the tap is turned on." So I wrote and wrote and wrote, but without one big idea I just wrote short stories or wrote about my own life. Then an idea came and a friend encouraged me by saying she wanted to hear more.
