The construction of sentences. There's a basic and artistic way to write any given sentence and I love that. Anybody can write a sentence or give their opinion but being able to do it in a way that makes somebody feel something is special to me. A few people have told me they cried when they read my second book and it almost made me cry knowing that I could evoke that emotion.

The only thing you can do is do something else. Every time I've tried to force it, I've ended up having to re-write everything I've written. That's why writers rarely work 9-5. It's an impossibility to 'turn it on' at any given time.

It'd probably be back something quite glamourous like the house in The Great Gatsby. I wouldn't want to have a main role in their chaotic lives, but that era fascinates me a lot.
