Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet. Because the passion and chemistry between the two lasted through the ages to inspire us. I love how they are both strong characters with well defined personalities and how those quirks and strengths, weaknesses and failings served to draw them together and make their bond even stronger. Plus, who doesn't love a mysterious, brooding, man of depth like Mr. Darcy?

Yes Christy, I am in the middle of writing 'Nameless'. Thank you so much, I am glad you enjoyed Lady Sun. Nameless should be released by the end of August, fingers crossed!

So far I haven't had to. If I get stuck in a spot where I need to find an answer I ask my husband. He knows everything, even what my characters are going to do next. He's kinda my cheat sheet.

Finishing the book! Nothing like the high of writing 'The End' and being satisfied with knowing how it all turned out. The writing part is always a combination of stressful and exciting, finishing it and closing the final chapter is like finally seeing your baby when it is born...all toes and fingers and beautiful.

Write. After you write, take the next step. Don't let anyone tell you it is too hard, don't get discouraged by the details and tedium of publishing, and don't worry about reviews or sales. We write because we have a story to tell, if you write for approval or for money, you will never be satisfied.

I am writing 'Nameless' right now, I can't give any spoilers so I will just say it is a story that already has me in knots :) Stealing every moment I can to find out what happens next!

The stories inspire me. I have written many but so far have only published Lady Sun. I haven't had a problem with writers block as the stories always take over and I just do what they tell me :) I have kids running around and chores that distract and daily life that needs to be handled, I have learned to write in the brief moments I can steal, so no time for writers block!
