Brenda Cheers Having a legitimate reason for living in a world of my own making.
Brenda Cheers It's more about "How could I possibly stop writing?" I couldn't. As soon as I've finished one novel I begin the next. Inspiration flows from every part of my life: people I meet, conversations I have, things I see, hear, smell, taste and feel; it's all there.
Brenda Cheers The sequel to "In Strange Worlds" is due for release on the 10th of August. The idea of this novel was driven by the response of readers who really wanted to know what happened next. So did I.
I'm also writing the first draft of a new story. It's about the dangers of indulging in a life of secrets. I'm enjoying it!
Brenda Cheers Picture this: a person sitting before me with a story about how they would really like to be a writer. They have been told they have the talent, but--you know--there are obstacles: job, spouse, children, sport, hobbies--there's just no time.
My advice? Try rising one hour earlier each morning and before you have your coffee or breakfast, or indeed anything at all, just sit down at the keyboard and write. Or instead of watching your favorite TV show of an evening, plop yourself in front of the computer and write. Do this seven days a week for a few months and you have a first draft.
Just write. Easy.
