I dont really get writers block all that often because I choose to write only when I get the itch. There are times when even when I am scratching that itch that I get blocked, then I just pack it in for the day or take a break. Writer's block is scary, so I try to avoid it if I can.

The freedom it brings. There are so many rules to the English language, but when you write, you have creative freedom to break them and break the boundaries of your imagination and the world as we know it.

Honestly, just write. Some days it will be garbage and you will hate yourself for wasting your life doing this. However, every once in a while you will write something so magical that you will be forced to share it with the world and they will love it.

Currently I am working on a book about a teacher and the journey he takes during his first year as a kindergarten educator. It has a lot of jokes and the illustrator is drawing the book comic style. I really love the way it is turning out.

My friend is an artist and one day I just said to him, "Frank if I write a book, will you draw it?" A year later, A World Without Water was born.

The Moustache Fairy came to me because children all of a sudden seem to want to have a moustache (real or fake). So I let my imagination run a bit wild and created a whole picture book about a boy named Alvin who never got his moustache and how he copes with this problem in a town where your moustache is your identity. Luckily for Alvin, he has a Magical Moustache Fairy looking over him.
