      • Go see a psychiatrist if you are thinking of writing. Joking aside, when I give talks in schools I will ask how many want to be writers then ask them if they are crazy, because writing will take over their life entirely. You can go to sleep with a plot problem in your head and wake up in the middle of the night with the solution. Ideas for scenes can come anytime and anywhere. I tell them they have to be ready for that, really be hungry for it, have a fire in their belly and most of all, be prepared to do the hardest thing they have ever done and not have a romantic view of what a writer does. It is a hard, but for some reason we are driven to do it.

      • Crafting a story in such a way the reader is drawn into your world so much that not only do they not notice the writing, but they lose track of time. Once you can achieve that you are up there with the best.

      • I write in more than one genre anyway, but so far have only published crime. I am particularly drawn to fantasy and Sci-fi because of the infinite possibilities in creating new worlds.

      • There are many writers who say there is no such thing, just get on with it. But there are times when you can no longer focus on a particular story and nothing useful is being produced. I have more than one manuscript on the go (currently five) so I can switch between them if that happens. However, I do try to stick to the 'next one' whenever possible.

      • I changed the process of editing because the first one took so long and had so many edits because I don't write my scenes in chronological sequence and often write the ending or later chapters first. Now I make notes in the chapter if an earlier scene has changed something, but I will leave the edit until the next draft. I take a lot more time now refining the story and I suppose I am more of a plotter than I used to be. Although some scenes in the sequel to Out of Darkness have been written, the plotting process is still ongoing and to a far greater degree than I have done before.

      • My junior school headmaster, Marcus Dearden, encouraged creativity, especially writing but my focus at high school was away from the arts and towards science. Another inspiration was Jules Verne who I first read when I was made nine or ten years old. He showed me you could draw people into a story and keep them there.
        Despite my interests moving away from the arts, I think the urge to write was still there, and I had a brief dabble in the nineteen-eighties, but what I produced was diabolical and never saw the light of day. I didn't start writing seriously in 2011 when I started on my first novel.

      • Make sure you take time for yourself. Smell the flowers, take a walk, whatever it takes to relax. I took a long break between finishing Out of Darkness and starting the sequel because the subject matter had such an effect on me. So definitely take a break from it if you have to, and have good family or friends who can help you when the going gets tough, because it will.
