Crysta asked Kasie West:

Hi! I really love your books, and am attempting to write little stories myself (I think I'm failing- I drop the stories pretty fast). How do you get your ideas, and what makes you write what you do? And what's your favorite book you wrote?

Kasie West Hi! Thanks for reading my books! And keep trying and practicing! The more you do, the more and more stories you will end up completing. Push through the hard parts. Middles of stories can be hard sometimes. But if you get through, then you can go back and edit and cut out the boring parts and rearrange and make it better. You can't do that unless you finish. So keep at it until you can finish. My ideas come from a lot of different places: sometimes it's somewhere I visited or a story I heard or a movie I saw or a character I thought of. Inspiration comes from many places so I try to keep my eyes and ears open. My favorite book?! I can't pick a favorite! :)
