I miss libraries and doing research. For my dissertation, I even got to use the microfiche machine to read 19th-century newspapers from Argentina. That was fun

I think I’m on year five with my previous WIP. I finally sent it to a publisher, but no response.

Hmm now I’m wondering if that’s why I keep tinkering. I think the answer is yes

Do you ever feel like your story is truly finished? I just don’t. That doesn’t mean I work on it forever, but… #writingq #WritingCommunity

They are both horror. Erika Wurth wrote White Horse and Robin Heck wrote Crowmouth. They were both fabulous in their own ways

I know what you mean. My last WIP had a depressed MC. It’s hard even though I can relate

Which of your characters has been the most challenging to write? For me, it’s Tony—a chronic gambler who means well. I don’t know why he’s been tough to create #writingq #WritingCommunity

If you could meet a famous author, living or dead, who would it be? I would love to meet Ray Bradbury #readingcommunity #WritingCommunity
