Writer's block is a very real thing! Sometimes it's like my fingers are glued to the keyboard and they can't move. My mind goes blank.

I keep a notebook with writing ideas. Every time I think of something I feel will make a good story, I write the ideas in my little book. On those days when my fingers won't move, I get out my notebook and find something that interests me. I just start writing. Even if my writing seems jumbled and not coming together, I keep writing. Nine times out of ten, I pull together a story. Then I go back, clean it up and tweak it.

The thought of a full moon on October 31st sparked my imagination and that evening I started writing my Halloween short story The Witch's Moon.

A lot of times my ideas come to me at night when I'm trying to fall asleep. A few times I've dreamed about a story, but forgot it by morning because I didn't make time to write it down.(less)

As the leaves turn to shades of gold and crimson and the air gets that delightful crispness, there’s no better time to cozy up with a fall cozy mystery.
