Ken Goudsward
I have never had a shortage of ideas. I started out writing songs and poetry. Sometimes an idea was so great I had to start a whole new band, just to pursue that one idea.
One thing that's really great about switching to fiction is how spacious it is. Especially after writing songs where you were limited to maybe two or three short verses to tell a story, because really, that is what a lot of songs are. So I guess I have worked on both extreme ends of the space spectrum, and honestly, they are both really fun for their own challenges.
I write because I like it. I write becasue I have to - I have ideas inside that NEED to get out.
