If you could put yourself as a character in your book, who would you be?
Charlie is the character in many ways. The character developed around some of my childhood experiences dealing with bullying and finding my voice.
Do you ever get writer’s block? What helps you overcome it?
I tend to get writer's block often over the last several years. It's the process! To explore the hidden rooms of your mind and bring out that story. And, take a pen or pencil to paper and write it down. Sometimes, I get to the point and nothing comes out. When this happens, It takes about a week to recollect my ideas and find the angle I need to jump-start the creativity.
Do you write every day?
I make sure I write down notes of ideas when it comes. That keeps me engaged daily.
If you could go back in time, where would you go?
Straight to the 70's decade of free choice, the discovery of self, and finding what it means to be diverse.
If there is one thing you want readers to remember about you, what would it be?
Everything begins with a beginning, write the story, whatever it turns out to be, let it be.
