Thanks for the questions. Since the answers are a little more involved than a yes or a no, I'll post them in a blog entry. Hi Sarah. Thanks for the questions.

I appreciated this post because I've often wondered what exactly makes an author sit down and write. I was also pretty curious about the process. I wasn't sure if the act of writing felt more like a struck by inspiration, possessed by the spirit of a great writer moment or if it was structured. Also, 1000 words doesn't seem like a lot at first, but when you actually sit down and write it and try to make it fluid and witty I'm sure it's a big task. ^_^ I had a question though. Whenever I write (usually research papers for Geology classes) I never really stick to an outline so I always have to go back and reread what I've written before I pick it up again. I'm very critical of my own work when I read it and often I end up rewriting the whole thing several times before I make myself leave it alone. My question was, are you critical of your own work and does it ever truly feel finished? Also, the novels that you wrote before, are you planning on trying to publish them now that your name is out there? Thank you so much for your time. I read your blog whenever I get the chance and I can't wait for Fated to be finished. I'm sure it'll be wonderful! You’ve got to love the spider solitaire.
