Stop paying for Internet and cable. Don't think that you have to see the whole story to begin writing. All you need is one line, one glimpse, and then trust that the muse will give you what comes next. I feel like stories are not within me, but rather are external, and pass through me. Don't refuse an assignment from the muse. Show the reader what the muse is screening in your head. Write what you see, even if it isn't what comes next in the story.(less)

Thanks for the question, and thank you for the kind review of Echo’s Sister! The answer is yes and yes. You may have seen that I have a 2017 release called Train I Ride. In 2020 HarperCollins is releasing my story about a gothic girl and a surfer girl, “Summer and July.” After that will be Thirty Parks, about a girl whose father takes her on a tour of all thirty Major League Baseball Parks. There are three others after that which are on various stages of development. Thank you for reading!(less)

Hello Dawn! I didn't see this until now! I haven't poked around Goodreads much, but I am trying to do that more as part of my effort to be sufficiently authorish! I hope you enjoy Story Girl, and i hope you can make it to The Hive for the Train I Ride release on Friday, January 27, 2017! I am so looking forward to that!
