How do you get story ideas? I love to write but I feel like my story ideas suck. :P So I was wondering where you get yours?
Laurie Halse Anderson
They come from everywhere! Usually I'll focus on an interesting topic until my imagination figures out how to create a character who has to deal with that topic. This can take a LOT of time, so be patient. Be gentle with yourself, too. Writing can be frustrating and hard, but if you stick with it, it's a lot of fun.

Laurie Halse Anderson:
My name is Tamarah Helck, and I have developed your novel, Fever 1793, into a literature curriculum because it is packed full of every literary element that students need to master. In addition, they love the plot, and every year they ask the same question:, "Why hasn't this novel been developed into a movie?" Well, now I am asking that same question. Is there any hope that Fever 1793 will become a movie?
