The Temba actually came from several short stories I did in the past, Although I lost those stories, I remembered them well. Before then, I wondered about aliens and life which we have never made contact with and what it would be like to come into first contact with what would be presumed a God, but wasn't. Mostly what I suspect much humanity would do first to an alien outsider.
We are getting so technology advanced right now, I believe it would be soon when we start to find life outside out boundaries...or it may find us.

I day dream a lot, and ideas and visions come naturally to my mind. Then I nose dive into perfection and try and make it even better, Throw myself into a 3rd person perspective with several personalities and attempt to understand what I was thinking and if it would be interesting to those personalities.
Then if its worth it, I write up a short story and bam, let the creativity flow.

I'm currently working on Eidolon 2 which is a followup of Eidolon the Reign of King Highthorn. It continues Boba's story with the God Skyfire as they learn about one another and figure out what to do about such a hostile King back on their mainland.
I'm also working on some backstory for a book comic named Extramus on the side with a good co-worker artist that is already a heavy fan of the works. His skills as an artist are outstanding and I think we will blend well with this project when Eidolon is finished.

It's hard to maintain a stead workflow, I suggest finding your Zen spot, trying to write in different areas always helped me. Getting a suit or a beach side B&B allowed me to get more of my writing done with no distractions.
Get your laptop and book it.

The freedom of when and where I can work. I would love to be a full time writer, I'm not so much a people person, I like to hide a lot but I do want to share my stories because I put so much of my experience in life into them and I hope I can share that through my creative book/books to come with everyone else.

Writers block happens a lot for me. Getting outside, doing something else that may be creative too is my best answer. Painting, playing games, even day dreaming about other stories, whats the point to life or even just getting my girl and going out and doing something sometimes creates a spark.
