Off the top of my head, I can't think of any. I may have to get back to you if one comes to mind.

I don't so much get inspired to write as react to ideas. When one comes to mind I write it then see if I can integrate it into the book I'm working on.

Sorry, no. Horror is not in my wheelhouse because I can't buy into any of the premises that form the basis of horror stories.

Probably the Boston depicted in Robert B. Parker's Spenser series. I really love Parker's writing style and I would love to 'absorb' the interplay between him and Hawk and the other characters.

I don't 'push' it. When I have writer's block, it's usually because I haven't sorted the scene out mentally. Once that's done, it's like a door in my head opens and the words just come rushing out.

For me, the friends I have made along the way. They have improved my writing with their wise counsel and enriched my life in so many ways.

If you have a story you've just gotta tell, look on it as an adventure, a chance to learn and try new things, keep it as light and fun as possible. If it becomes a chore, you'll start to dread it and will abandon it.

I've always been a 'car guy,' so my main character always is somehow involved with cars.
The idea for this book came from talking to and watching a body man doing repair on several cars I've owned, I just 'amped' him up to a guy who does high end restorations on cars from the 50s, 60s, and early 70s.
