There is no one thing that inspires me. My first book, Lemon Drops And Love grew out of my love for romance stories and I wanted to try my hand at one. It was meant to be entirely different but I had a dream about this particular guy and it grew from there. In this story the characters very much dictated to me where things were going.
But otherwise inspiration comes from anywhere and at any time. Chance conversations, a clip from a movie and vivid dreams have all inspired me.
When it hits it is like a lightening bolt and for weeks it dominates everything I do. After several weeks of thinking constantly about it, dreaming different scenarios and just writing down anything that pops into my head eventually I see a glimpse of something emerging and then I run with it.
