There are people who sail across the ocean to keep the world connected. They're all they have while they're out there, and sometimes that much solitude can drive a person insane.

I don't really get writer's block... Maybe because I recognize when I need to take a drive (see above), go be outside, or just switch gears on projects, or between different projects. Keeping everything fresh, whether it's drawing in the evening, making leather, writing non-fiction, or working on different parts of the work in progress, keeps it fun and interesting.

When I finally leaned into my love of writing, every aspect of my creative nature was ignited. I've never felt more confident in what I was creating. That's the best part: it's a part of me.

Whew.... write. Read, and write. Just start the thing. Be kind when you don't hit goals or milestones when you expected to. Just. Keep. Writing.

Driving. More specifically, because I've driven in many climates and regions, driving through the Western US. I-70 from Colorado to California. The Rocky Mountains. Doesn't matter the setting of the story itself; being in these places ignites my imagination.

I have had it for many, many years. I want to say I was around fifteen years old when I started writing it. It was sparked while I was reading Christopher Paolini's Eargon series. I wanted to know the story from the villain's perspective. Now we're here :)

I don't have a specific place, but I would probably do what I do in real life: In a big city I find a park to forget I'm in a city... then get food. After that, rent a car (or horse, I like fantasy) and travel the countryside.

I recently read Hall of Smoke. So great! Now I've picked up author Joe Vallen's books. I'm enjoying them.

I am a Merchant Marine. I in fact plan on writing a shipboard horror story in the future. Working on ships and living on the ocean is too wild to not write about!
