This is not an easy question. Really, I don't know. All I can say is that when a book finally is complete and has been published, I am bereft. I wander around in a sort of daze, not sure what I should be doing next. This malaise is cured only by writing again. Sometimes, the best times, the idea for the next book appears as I'm finishing the editing stage and I'll make a few notes or even write the first few pages (to be reviewed and probably rewritten, of course.)
It is as if I don't get inspired as much as I must write.
Truly, I have no real idea about the origin of the specific ideas for each book. They seem to appear as if by magic -- often overnight.

Sharon I received your book and wow just the beginning is bringing me in and looks like one of those books hard to put down. I just check and unfortunately our library is not carrying your books. I would like to obtain some more of your Maggie McGuill mysteries. I want to finish it before I give an honest review. Do you get involve with the characters when you are writing the stores?
