Oh, I really enjoy coffee.
What inspires you to write?
This is a difficult question. I initially wrote academic (non-fiction) research papers and book reviews. Years later both circumstance and a yearning not to be a linear author that I ventured wholeheartedly into fiction writing. My inspiration likely stems from the characters themselves, writing them as real people and hoping that the good ones have their lives in the beautiful form they deserve.
Tell us about your writing process.
My writing process is not consistent except for the last several books I write freehand. Characters are but empty shells with physical appearances until experience and events detail who they are and whom they are to become at the end of the story.
How do you develop your characters?
Not really. I may know how they physically appear and choose their names, but they unfold as events do; their reactions, habits generally inform what type of person they will be.
