Badly. Seriously, writers block only becomes a problem for me when I take a story in the wrong direction. The only solution for me is to back up and rewrite.

Getting the characters voices out of my head and on the page.

Never ever give up. 64 rejection letters and I quit for ten years. Carousel was my coming out/back party. My fans have let me know how much they love the writing. Don't you ever give up and keep writing.

It's the follow up to Carousel, titled "Perfectly Broken." We find Danny involved in yet another mystery with bodies on the floor. This time there is a lot more of Danny's smart-ass personality showing through and a lot less melancholy. I am having a blast writing these characters I know so well.

The final inspiration came from my wife, the amazing Kim Smith who has always been my biggest cheerleader.

Carousel is completely fiction, however a great deal of the back story is inspired from my own life.
