Get out of your head and get your butt in a seat. Write, write, write... I doesn't have to be perfect or great art. It only has to be on paper.

I don't believe in writer's block. It happens when I make the writing process too important. I tell student in my writing classes to turn off the perfectionist and"write ugly and droll". Another reason is that characters lack clearer goals and objectives. Bring them to life and they'll tell you where to go. Lastly, to quote Raymond Chandler... when all else fails have someone what into the room with a gun. ;)

No one way. I read alot, watch Ted talks. Something catches my imagination and off I go. Releasing this book has been good for me because I have had to write guest blog posts. I have had to create my own inspirations rather than tripping on them.

I have a collection of witch dolls. I bought one witch doll and accidentally left if in a friends car. For awhile we wrote emails back and forth with me writing in the voice of the doll. That became the prototype for Elena. Got interested in Lithuanian paganism and changed from witches to priestess. One thing led to another.
