Laura asked Diane Chamberlain:

What or who has inspired you to become an author? Who inspires you today?

Diane Chamberlain I was most inspired by all those authors whose books I couldn't put down over the years. They made me want to be a good storyteller. As for today, I think I'm most inspired by my many friends who write. Writing is hard and they keep at it. Most of my writing friends turn out a book a year and we go through the same process of self-doubt, wanting to give up, uncertainty, and finally triumph. I love that we can encourage one another along the way.

How often do you come up with a title and it's kept? Like THE SILENT SISTER and NECESSARY LIES, were they your suggestions or your editor's? If they changed, what were they originally? Thanks Diane!
