*Does inspiration come easily or does one need to look for it? *Approximately, how much time did it took for your stories to become published? *When you find that you have a lack of inspiration, what are you most likely to do? *Has the decision of becoming a writer been pleasing throughout the years? *What advice would you like to give to any future writer? Thank you so much for answering.

Kasie West Thanks for the questions. I will attempt to answer them. :) Sometimes inspiration comes fast and easy. Sometimes my brain is just empty and I have to search for it. From the time I decided I wanted to write until I got published it was about 5 years. When I am lacking inspiration I step away from my computer or the story I'm working on and live my life. I go out. I watch movies, I read, I hang out with friends. I let myself relax and see the world around me and I find more often than not, ideas will come to me when I'm not thinking too hard about them. The decision to become a writer has been one of the best I've ever made. It's not always easy, but I love it. The advice I would give to a writer is don't compare your way of writing to anyone else, do what works for you. And read a lot. And practice writing a lot.
