I'm writing a series, so all ideas came in a kind of gentle flow. Right now, I'm very focused on the red color: it is often used to describe strong emotions, passion and something maybe bloody (I write about vampires, so I know that well...), but this time I want to go deep, to find what's hiding behind or under those strong shades.

The best thing? Maybe being able to create an imaginary world, where all my creatures can live. An illusion shared with my readers, where we can have fun and relax.

I deal with writer's block by... writing. I read my notes, edit them, then I try to go ahead and if i fail, well... I read, listen to music, go for a hike with my dog. Simple as that.

It might be seen as an ordinary answer, but reading is a number one rule. It opens your mind, it thrusts you into a million different worlds. It give you ideas, feelings, even courage. Then you have to believe in yourself, find a routine and write every damn day!

Right now, I'm working very, very hard on the third installment of Legio X series. It will be a touching story, with a sweet but strong heroine!
