Getting floetry with Penelope Marshall

I am inspired to write stories that remind me of my own hopes and desires.
Where do you get your ideas from?

Which trope would you never use?
My ideas flow in from life experiences, but I use the keyboard to add flare and suspense.
If you could collaborate with any author who would it be?
I would collaborate with John Steinbeck and Shakespeare. Steinbeck’s realistic approach to the human condition and the fluidity of Shakespeare’s prose would, to me, be a match made in heaven.
What makes you unique as an author? Set’s you apart?
All authors have a special uniqueness about them. I am no better or worse than the guy next to me trying to perfect his craft to the best of his ability.
