feelings about writing and the writing process. Enjoy!
Why do you write?
I write for fun and creativity. I also enjoy seeing people pick up
my books and become enthralled by their stories; that for me is
the most satisfying of feelings, that I can capture a reader’s
imagination with a story that I have produced - that’s what
keeps me writing!
