Just producing something that may resonate with others and be there long after you are gone. Also by bringing an unspoken piece of human experience to life through your book, you enable others to see and feel events that may have remained hidden for ever.

Write about something that you are passionate about and know your subject inside out.

The two books that I have written to date, have had so much feed back and revealed so many, hitherto unknown facets, that quite a number of avenues have opened up. I am working on another book, tentatively entitled "Unexpectedly lucky".

Hard to say! Either it comes to you through your feelings or it doesn't. And that happens when you are least expecting it, when you are talking to people, reading other books, watching documentaries.

I didn't get the idea from anywhere. I work on feelings and it's about randomly talking about things that I feel strongly about in the present and in the past, some funny some serious, but it's all about passion for living.

I deal with writer's block by avoiding it. By that I mean that when ideas that are ripe for writing down are not there, then I do not force myself to write just for the sake of it. It means that moments arrive when I just want to sit down and write something. This something usually consists of strongly held views, feelings or sudden recollections. They usually fall into some kind of a pattern because sub-consciously you are thinking of the end product, "The Story". In other words; do not force yourself to write, just make sure that when you are in the mood then don't put it off. Once there are enough "scraps" written down then they all start to build up momentum into a book.
