They just pop in my head. I'm thinking about something and then I'll say, "Hey that will make a great book." Recently, I was having a discussion with some co-workers and I said something and immediately thought, that would make a great book. Sometimes there are situation I either tweet about or put on Facebook and again think, this would make a great book.

Usually a story lines pops in my head. If I can do a quick visualization of the story from start to end in my head then I know I want to write it. Next it's to actually sit down and write the novel. I usually create an atmosphere (candles, music, sitting on my terrace, etc) to get me in the mood to write.

My latest novel, After The Wedding is a sequel. In my book Excuses, I wrote four short stories. Although everyone loved each story, the favorite was Wedding Day. People wanted more. They wanted to know ... what happened after the wedding.
