Michelle Bursey asked Charlaine Harris:

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question :) I have wanted to write my own book for a while now, not that I will write the next best book or anything, but I have a passion for reading and writing. Do you have any advise to offer on how to start a book? I have some ideas but I struggle to get them to paper. Thanks again and I hope to hear from you :)

Charlaine Harris Michelle, start with any scene you have finished in your head. You can build the book up before and after that scene. Writing is always a struggle, but the rewards are worth it.
