How many hours a day on average do you write? Do you have a schedule?

I really don't have a set schedule. I would love to be able to write for two or three hours every morning, but since I work another full-time job, that's not always possible. I do most of my writing in the evenings after work or on the weekends. Also, I try to focus on the word count I'm getting down every day versus how much time I spend writing. I know that if I'm cranking out an average of 2K words a day, I'm doing pretty good.

Thanks for the question!(less)

Some writers will outline the entire story before they begin to write, and while there are advantages to this approach, I prefer to develop the plot as I write. It seems to work better for me that way, but oftentimes I do get to a point in the story where I get stuck. Sometimes I will take a break from a manuscript and try to flesh things out in my mind for a day or two. But ultimately, I've found the best cure for writer's block is simply to write. Even if I end up going back later and changing what I have written, just the process of putting words down helps get the creative juices flowing again.(less)

Novel Release

I'm excited to announce the release of my fourth novel, Lost Girls.

Lauren Miller left home just days after graduating high school, her flight fueled by a desperate desire to escape a small town she wanted no part of, one full of dead-end jobs and a hopeless future. She took nothing with her except dreams of stardom, a soul-stirring voice, and a one-way bus ticket to Nashville shoved into the back Read more of this blog post »
