Don't hate me but my *all-time* fav couple isn't from a book, but the most influential show of my teen years, Dawson's Creek. I'm still not over Joey choosing Dawson. #TeamPaceyForever

I hate to skip a day of any kind of writing because it keeps me sane. BUT, there are days I have to step away if working on other projects isn't helping. It's okay to take breaks (she tells herself).

Writing about all the people - I mean CHARACTERS* - who've inspired me (or made me really, really mad!)

Legit don't ever stop writing until you've busted through all the barriers that will try with all their might to hold you back. Take rejection as a battle scar; collect them like a savage, and when you finally get "there" never forget what that hustle feels like. If you get complacent, you won't last.

I am always working on at least 100 projects at once because my brain is incredibly busy. I just finished a humorous memoir where I talk about bacon-wielding centaurs, Steve Harvey snafus, + my cat hoarding problem!

You mean "how do you stay sane if you aren't writing?" Because, uh, I DON'T! I don't wait on inspiration; I write until the fog lifts and I can see clearly.

Funny enough, the characters walked into my brain and wouldn't leave. The events in the background of their complicated love story, though, are loosely based on true events that struck my family in the late 70's. This was my way of rewriting their story so, hopefully, they can heal.
