C.A. Hiddleston
For me, inspiration starts with an idea I want to explore. I research the idea and sometimes take a college course to get a fuller picture. Characters gather round, become different facets of the idea, take on a life of their own, and cannot be controlled. About 2/3's of the way through the book, I struggle for direction until a path opens up to the end.
