I honestly don't know, it just came to me. Literally just popped into my head. My book You are my Sunshine that is about to be released was written while I was watching every season of Dexter...yes there is a serial killer and no he's not the Dexter kind, he's bad.

I just take a break from writing. I'll listen to music or watch TV. I usually get inspired by something that makes me go "oh yeah, that could work" then I go back and write!

I do a lot of commuting and day dream a lot in the car. I get a lot of ideas while driving. I also look at everything and everyone and wonder what the story is...

A romance novel..classic boy from the wrong side of the tracks, meets girl from money. They fall in love much to her parents dismay. They are happy and young and carefree until a car accident takes her from him. He struggles to move on from her and when his rock band makes it big he drowns himself in that lifestyle. Cliche rocker: sex, drugs, rock and roll, until the day he sees her and his world is, again, turned upside down.

Keep writing. The more you write the better you get. Also, you have to work hard and learn a lot more than just how to write a book. Network and make friends that have been where you are. The writing community is a welcoming one so don't be shy!

When the characters talk to me. I love the creative process and when my characters dictate the story.
