Smashwords Interview

Where did you grow up, and how did this influence your writing?
I grew up in the Washington DC area. People are pretty intense there, so I headed out for a change of scenery as soon as I could, and I think my wandering around has helped spur stories out of me. I just recently came back to the DC area to see if things had changed, and see the family, so we'll see what creatively develops out of that decision.
When did you first start writing?
I started writing as soon as I could string a decent(ish) sentence together on paper ... so maybe when I was six or so. I've dropped in and out of actively writing depending on whatever other creative stuff I'm into, but writing is definitely my main and true love.
