What inspires you to get out of bed each day?
I think more than anything, it's my kid. Sometimes because he's the one waking me up, others because I have to wake him up. And beyond that, because everything I do, especially getting my ass to work, is ultimately for him and for my wife, to make sure the life we're making keeps moving on an upswing. My day job is in a volatile and unstable business, TV production, where I'm essentially only ever a contract employee. So I need to maximize the time and effort I'm willing to put into that work so that I can keep getting hired. So far, so good.
When you're not writing, how do you spend your time?
When I'm not writing, I'm working. Or spending as many waking seconds as possible with my family. Or stealing moments for myself. Y'know, the usual. I also like TV.
