Smashwords Interview

What is your writing process?
I write at a little desk in a corner in my bedroom most of the time. However I can write anywhere inspiration takes me. Usually I write the story arc or jot ideas in my 5 subject notebook, and then I hit the computer for the manuscript. When I’m outlining I have a white board that I do scene breakdowns on like you would see in the writer’s room of a television series.
Do you remember the first story you ever read, and the impact it had on you?
I believe it was a story about Dick and Dora. That was a long time ago. My mom used to read stories to me when I as really little and I was always curious about words and all that.
