And now for the in depth questions :)



RJ Palmer

Is there a work of your own of which you are particularly fond? Why?



Laura Eno

Although I love my finished novels, I'm always excited about the next one - whatever one I'm currently working on.



RJ Palmer

What is your favorite part of the writing process? Your least favorite?



Laura Eno

The first draft is my favorite part. The words flow, the story unfolds and takes twists that surprise me. My least favorite would be editing. It's so...nitpicky.



RJ Palmer

Describe in your own words (for there can be no other way) what direction it is to which you aspire when it comes to your work. Where do you want your work to take you?



Laura Eno

It's not so much where I want it to take me as where I want it to take others. I write escapist fiction, to entertain others and transport them out of this world. As far as my goals, I will write until there are no more voices in my head - at which point I'm sure I won't have any gray matter left either.



RJ Palmer

Most writers have a favorite genre when it comes to reading that is not necessarily the genre in which they write, do you write in your favorite genre? If so, why? If not, why not?



Laura Eno

I write and read in several different genres, both of which tend to have an element of fantasy or paranormal in them. The mundane world doesn't seem to interest me.



RJ Palmer

Do you have a favorite quote from a writer that you use for inspiration? What is it and why?



Laura Eno

There are so many great writer quotes, but the one I have hanging over my desk is:

"You can't wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club." Jack London



RJ Palmer

Some writers tend to have a unique step in their writing process that has nothing whatsoever to do with the actual writing but has everything to do with inspiration or balance. Most people would call it a little bit OCD. Do you have such a step? Would you care to share what it is?



Laura Eno

Or a lot OCD! I have to write outside, even if it's freezing. That's why my first draft is done with pencil and paper.



I would like to thank Laura Eno for participating and encourage readers and viewers alike to please check Laura Eno out, her story may be just what you were looking for.
