This involves committing to engaging in your creative work for a mere 10 minutes a day. It's hard to find a reason not to work for a mere 10 minutes. When I've followed that advice, I've found that the 10 minutes always turns into at least a half hour but, more often, into an hour or more, even in late evening. Sometimes, however, life interferes and I find myself too distracted to write. When that happens, I give myself permission to take a break from writing. I finished my novel by putting in anywhere from one hour to four hours a day because I wanted to enjoy other areas of my life. I was rewarded by waking up each morning with new ideas that furthered my story and helped me to reach its conclusion.(less)

The importance of writing about women

I wrote the historical novel THE ENCLAVE in part to celebrate the strength and independence of my maternal grandmother. In writing the book, I explored the ways in which women in the late 1800s and the early 1900s were restricted in their movements and in their efforts to achieve personal growth by cultural and family traditions and religious beliefs.
