As the story rolls along, the characters encounter things and people that must be shown with succinct imagery, so it's vital to focus on the tastes, smells, feelings and colors. Better still, I'm able to "live" something I may never get to try, like space travel to a new planet. In one scene in The Emperors of Bedlam, August walks into a hall filled with old books. It took me days to describe the wonderful buttery smell of a library or old book shop. Writing it was almost as satisfying as roaming the dusty stacks.(less)

Like people cheering and handing out water to marathon runners, milestone mini-parties keep you writing to achieve the next one and remind you to take a fun moment and enjoy the journey. On The Emperors of Bedlam, I smoked a fairly expensive cigar at twenty-five thousand words. At fifty thousand, I took a day off to eat junk food, play video games, and watch old movies all day. If the heavens should part and EoB becomes a best seller, that milestone says I’m off to Paris.(less)
