The science fiction novel I am currently writing came to me while I was pottering around doing mundane real life things. I particularly am drawn to darker male characters, anti-heroes. Navin Jain was born in my mind and I had to write a story around him. The muse kicked in...and here I am writing.

An idea or a couple come to mind when I least expect it, and I have to open a word document and start typing. The muse just hits me and I have to let her have free reign :)

At the moment I am working on getting Book 1 of my Fighting the Inevitable main series, ready for self publishing. I am also working on Book 8 of the series, and writing a science fiction novel about crossing dimensions, which I hope to self publish shortly too.

Words. I love words so much, and characters...and not forgetting plots :)
I can lose myself for days in writing, and it's generally my *happy* place.

Writer's block is the bane of every author, I think. I usually take a time out from writing when it hits me, and then I consult my *brainstormer* friend. We hash out the scene that has me road blocked, and he knows my work better than I do sometimes. After a session with him, I tend to find direction again and can pick up and move on.
