Rosemary Simpson
If you mean the act of writing itself, I can't wait for inspiration to come along. I have to sit down in front of my computer every day and put words on the screen. Once I get past the brainstorming stage, scenes begin to come together and characters usually do what I want them to do. Writing is work. However, there are those wonderful moments when you wake up in the morning with the first few sentences of the next chapter fully formed in your mind. Maybe inspiration is happening all the time and we just have to slow down enough to hear it.

Rosemary Simpson:
I picked up What the Dead Leave Behind because I've always thought that 1888 was an especially eventful year - along with the Great Blizzard and Jack the Ripper, the International Council of Women was formed, the London Matchgirl Strike happened, slavery was fully abolished in Brazil...are there any other major events that you'd like to incorporate into Prudence's story?
