Currently working on a couple short stories, book 3 of my Potomac Shadows urban fantasy series, and prepping two other UF series and will be writing those this summer and fall.

Read a lot, inside and outside the genre(s) you want to write in. Never stop learning--take workshops and classes, read craft books, watch videos from other writers, talk to writers online and in person. Always be writing. Have fun.

The freedom to write what I want, when I want, how I want, and to package it in a format I'm happy with, and then publish it for readers all around the world to discover.

If I'm working on a story and I get stuck on something, I'll usually take a short break and do something else, like read or play a mindless video game, or otherwise distract myself. This gives my subconscious a chance to think about the problem, and usually it'll work itself out and I'll get back to writing.
