When I was a little girl, I wanted to be everything under the sun: a teacher, a pilot, a firefighter, a lawyer, the President, a detective in the Special Victims Unit (thank you Law and Order), and a writer. Always a writer. No matter how everything else on that list might have changed, writer always stuck.

The second is when I know what comes next in my story, but I can't think of a transition to get me from where I currently am in the story line to where I want it to end up. The third occurs when I am just tired of writing. For the first and second blocks, I try a change of scenery (I go for a walk or even just go to a different room), doing something else for a little while, or listening to music.

The Girl Who Fell From the Sky - A Review

I think I knew I would love this book from the very first page. From that very first page I didn't want to put it down. Its characters and plot lines occupied my mind even when I was away from them, and I did something with my reading of this book that I haven't done in a while. I dragged it out on purpose. I could easily have finished this book in a couple of days, possible in mere hours if I had
