Music is definitely a part of my process. I like to listen to music that relaxes me and get me in a tranquil mood. Every now and then, I even dig into my crates of albums (vinyl)....there's nothing like the pops and imperfections of the needle on classic vinyl for inspiration. In addition to music, I also like to frequent local bodies of water (i.e., lakes, oceans) to get into my writing zone.

I am currently working on the follow-up book to my first novel 'Habitual Burdens'. It's the second book in the Detective Trenton Addison series. My target release date is for late summer 2018.

I would say that the best thing about being a writer is having the ability to invent and create. It allows me to escape from the rigors of every day life and to be the means by which my readers can do the same. I love the fact that my work can be a stress reliever for someone that had a rough day at work or might be dealing with some life issue that is out of their control.

I thoroughly plan my stories from beginning to end, and in doing so, I rarely if ever deal with writer's block. If a writer has planned and outlined their project, there is no reason for them to be dealing with writer's block. Now, don't get me wrong, that doesn't mean that I don't have moments during a writing session where I may struggle with producing content, I have those moments. What I'm eluding to in regard to writer's block is having long stretches (days or weeks) of time during which a writer can't produce content. With proper planning, that shouldn't happen.
