My latest book or maybe books are inspired by a multi player game I'm now playing. It makes for interesting ideas to see the interaction with people I have never really met. One of my friends on the game recently died and it was a shock to see how much his death affected me. I've written books due to dreams, a glimpse of something I see that gives me an idea or maybe even an interesting name that inspires me to create that person. I have fun with it.

I'm sorry. I had no clue I had questions here. Uhm, hopefully you already have a first book well underway. Just keep at it. Try to make your characters real so people can relate to them. Watch and learn from those around you. You can pick up interesting gestures or facial features just from watching.

In my books it would have to be Aria and Kier. They are eternal and both know it takes give and take to make their relationship work. I think movie couple would be Tristan and Isole. It was a touching movie about a forbidden love. I knew what was going to happen but it still made me cry.

I just finished the 9th book in the Lurid series, and I'm thinking about 10. I'm working on a second book for a series that is being published by Evernight. I also have a vampire book started that I'm considering going back to. In between there's edits and rewrites for Lurid and Wild Angels which will be released over the next few months with eXtasybooks.

I love to create and often find myself caught up in the story. Sometimes it's as if my muse had a mind all her own and I'm just typing the words. It's also fun to see new covers or go back and do edits because I often discover scenes I had complete forgot about. Hearing feedback through reviews is inspirational.

I usually just put the book aside and work on another one. At any given time I have between 5 and 10 different books going with a variety of subject matter. At some later point I will be inspired to return to a previous book and finish it.
