Scribble down some ideas. It's come. Be patient.

Best thing? Bringing characters to life and having them live in your head for a while. Unless you don't like your characters, then it can be a distraction.
Seriously? It's seeing the end result and getting positive feedback. If you stimulate someone else's imagination with your story or characters, you get satisfaction for your effort.

Don't wait to long to get started. If you give it a try, you'll find out quickly if you've got the patience to see it through.

I'm working on a sequel to Glory Grove. Feedback I'm getting from readers is they want to know what's happening next in the lives of my characters...so we're off an running.

I enjoy the process of writing and bringing characters to life. Once I've conceived of a plot line, I enjoy working through the process. A brisk walk always helps if I get stuck. And feedback from readers is a great inspiration.

Simple. The story is about life and strife in a small farm town. It's the life I've lived along with farming, teaching and writing. High school football is at the center of the story. I coached and taught in high school. My sons played college ball and one is a successful high school coach. The characters are fictional but the drama and life predicaments are real.
