For me, setting and description is a challenge. I always want to get that part just right, and sometimes the words won't work.

I love meeting new people; I think everyone has a story to tell. We should all listen sometimes.

I hope that in 5 years from now I'll be working and doing what makes me happy. Whatever that may be.

My experiences always influence my writing, but usually only on an emotional level. I have experienced death of a family member and it's easy to dredge up those feelings and get them on the page.

There are days when I don't want to go to the gym or find myself not super motivated upon arriving. I would visualize myself playing at the Olympics.

My greatest achievement so far is that I've been able to continue with my normal life. I love what I do, but more so, I'm glad to have people who care about me close by.

The editing process is a necessary evil. I can write until the cows come home but it is all garbage until it gets edited.
