Elizabeth Van Zandt was born and raised in central Virginia. Elizabeth views reading and writing as necessary escapes from reality and writes with the hopes that others can get lost in a world she created. She only begins writing a story after creating a personal soundtrack. In addition to reading, writing, and music, Elizabeth enjoys playing video games, baking, and relentlessly pestering her agent who really, truly loves it. (Really.) She currently lives in the quiet country with her fiancee and their dog, Chloe, who should've been named Chewbacca. ...more

What do you think is the ideal word count for an author's first and second book? Is length really important at all, or can a smaller work be just as impactful as a full-length novel?

I wouldn't say that the length is irrelevant, but it shouldn't be considered as a major factor. I find it useful to keep tabs on my word counts, especially if I'm writing a series, because I like for second, third, fourth, etc... books to be roughly the same length or longer than the book before it. Even though I'm the writer, I still have to develop my own relationship with my characters, and as they grow, I find I have more to say about them.(less)

If I have a specific plot point I'm stuck on, I'll often grab a pen and a notebook and I'll make a crazy chart. I'll also often write out sentences, or even paragraphs, that highlight each direction I'm considering taking, and there is usually a pretty clear winner.(less)

So this morning...

My routine doesn't vary much. Except on Thursdays, of course. It's the last "work" day of the week for me, I get to sleep in as late as I want and knock off early if I want to. I always look forward to Thursday precisely because it is the one day out of the week I can sleep as late as I want, unaffected by my boyfriend's lack of need for sleep. Seriously... who gets five hours and is perfectly fin Read more of this blog post »
