Why do I write?  I've been asking myself this a lot lately. I started storytelling before I learned how to read.  I told them to entertain myself. I was an only child without others to play with for a very long time. For a long time, I would have a great character, situation, details, and dialogue, but after the first chapter, I was lost. I still am. I'm not looking for writing anything to sell right now.  Now I want to tell the best possible story.

I write because I can't imagine not writing. Although it has been harder to write since my line was cut at Harlequin and my editors were let go. It took me 15 years to get published, and I'm not sure I want to go through the agony again. On the other hand, this story is one I feel pushed to write. It's a psychological thriller with a female first-person narrator, and I'm anxious to find out what she's trying to tell me.
