I don't really make a summer reading list. I have a stack of physical books from which I sometimes grab. Other times, I pull from my kindle, or whatever is coming across my feed. I read a lot of indie or small press books.

The vast majority of what I write is for my eyes only. I write when I'm inspired. I also write when I'm uninspired and know that I desperately need the practice. But, inspiration to write comes from many sources: the books I read, the people I meet, and prompts, to name a few.

Become a student of human behavior. Observe everything and everyone around you. Read regularly and find time to reflect, free write, or even scribble each week. It doesn't have to be every day. For me, the moment I commit to every day is the moment writing feels like a chore.

Currently, I'm working on a second book to create a series to Camp Lenape. I am also revising a finished manuscript.
