Describe your desk
It's small and quaint, but equipped with so many important tools I need on a daily basis to get the best work done. I have my extremely large ASUS laptop in the center, a pen holder in the shape of a typewriter at the back, a glass vintage inkwell and assorted hand creams.
Where did you grow up, and how did this influence your writing?
I grew-up in Bergen County, New Jersey. It has influenced my writing in many ways, namely because, although living a relatively cushy lifestyle, the town was very closed-minded.
