I always have ideas and people think I am creative. I think the interactions with the readers, I love that. Is so sweet and make me think: "Hey, they like my stuff".

Honestly I don't know, I try no to think too much, if I have a writer's block and take time apart the story. Is better stop writing, focus in something else, maybe talk about it with a friends. I bring friends over to re read the story. Sometime a second hears could help a lot.

Whatever Margaret Stohl publish and "El Amante Japones" by Isabelle Allende.

The last one I publish is "Amor Furtivo" I was listen to sad music, I was reading a novel about theater kids, and them I was reading "Triangulos Isosceles". I love both concept in this book and I said I want to create my own sad story. This novel is so cool to me, is sad but was a real difficult. Is in third person, I just don't want to create a sad story with meaning and complex. I want to tell the story of every character. So yeah, this come from music, every chapter have a song name. And the story and the writing come from my obsession with "Triangulos Isosceles".

Music, music, books, I love read classic and not some famous author, something I get ideas from music o from one sentence in some random book. Sometime I dream about the plot and other days, my friends are talking about crazy things. My mind is like "That sound like a good plot for a novel or short story let me writer down". Is very random.

Never Stop writing, do it for yourself, make that novel, short story, script etc... something you love and you are proud. I think that is the win.
