S. Marie This is a tough question. There are so many wonderful aspects of being a writer. I think my favorite though has to be creating a world and sharing it with others. Writing is a vulnerable endeavor. Oftentimes you are showing your innermost thoughts to strangers, but when people fall in love with your characters and your world, there is no better feeling.
S. Marie Usually, I step outside for some fresh air or go get a warm tea or fancy coffee. More often than not, that gives me the break I need to continue.
S. Marie Just go for it. Honestly. I am a painter by trade, but writing has always been my escape. Publishing a book was a lofty "future" dream for me until I just made it happen. There are so many resources out there to become a self-published author.

Everyone has a unique story to tell, so don't let fear stand in the way of pursuing your dreams.
S. Marie A majority of my inspiration comes from time spent in nature. I especially love Autumn, so I usually try and push myself to write most in the colder months.
S. Marie Currently, I am working on The Moon and Her Sun's sequel: The Lying Dark.
S. Marie The Moon and Her Sun was inspired by many things. The world itself, Domhaen, has been with me since I was child. It was my escape and my muse. The book actually began as a poem that morphed into a novel over a span of about five years.
