Different things work for me at different times. One of the things that helped with "How to Talk to Rockstars" was writing music reviews, both of albums and live shows. I still often write about music. It's a great way to be creative without any real pressure. Sometimes I like to go to an art museum or gallery and write short stories or poems about the artwork I see. I write every day, anyway, because of my job — staying in practice helps, and so does knowing that I *can* write even when I don't want to.

Hi Ali: Your LGBTQ friendly YA novel sounds fascinating. Good luck shopping it to agents. I'm shopping my second, SHE'LL BE KILLING ROUND THE MOUNTAIN (set in Asheville) to agents as well. It's the second in the series to LIMESTONE GUMPTION: A BRAD POPE AND SISTERFRIENDS MYSTERY and has an even more of an LGBTQ friendly theme as well. We should commiserate sometime. Where does your novel take place?
