My favorite starting point for a novel or really anything I write is a feeling. With my current work, Red Water, the premise came to me while I was at a concert to see the local symphony play. The music was so hauntingly beautiful that it felt like desperation, like wanting to feel everything all at once while simultaneously wanting to end it all. So that's what Red Water is.
