D.D. Sherman I don't know. Sometimes a character will pop into my head and say, "hey lady, I need you to write a story about me." And so it begins.
D.D. Sherman I honestly don't remember what inspired me. It seems I've been doing it all of my life--well for most of my life anyway. I completed my first manuscript when I was eleven years old and sent it to Warner Brothers who responded with a very nice, and empathetic rejection letter. Lol. But I held on to that letter for many years, because they told me that I was brave to write a complete novel at my age. I'm sorry I don't have it anymore.
D.D. Sherman "Rare Orchids." Another zany love story, but I think I knocked it out of the park with this one!

Right after that, I'll be working on SUPERNOVA! A love story that's OUT OF THIS WORLD! (Excuse the cliché).
D.D. Sherman READ! READ! READ! WRITE! WRITE! WRITE!
D.D. Sherman I don't, but have in the past. For anyone struggling in this area, I would encourage you to read, read, read and write, write, write, then read and write some more. Read everything! Writer everything! This practice will keep your mind perpetually stimulated.
D.D. Sherman I found myself teetering on the precipice of a jagged crag with it's peaks jutting into a swirling darkness. I balanced wobbly between the cloaked stranger baring his blood-dripping fangs and an endless descent into eternal darkness.
