Why are these expected to be in third person? I’m the writer here; it seems silly to pretend that my bio was written by someone else. So, I’m Whitney Metz, and I write the Black Magick Series. I’m a long time vegan and like to include animal rights and environmental undertones in my work. I’ve tried many different career paths but, through them all, writing has been a constant. I believe that stories are a vital part of life, and that great ones have the power to change the world for the better. I spend the vast majority of my time living in the fantasy world inside my head.

I inspect every little thing; how it looks, how it sounds, how it feels. I describe my character's every thought, every movement. This generally leads to a remarkably dull scene, the majority or which I will have to cut out during the edit, but it serves two very important purposes. One- it keeps the words flowing and staves off the frustration and despair that comes from staring at the taunting blink of that motionless cursor. Two- more often than not, if I dig far enough into the minutia of a scene, I will find some hidden detail that tells me where to go next. I think, deep down, we know where our stories need to go and, if we give ourselves enough material to work with, our subconscious will build us a bridge to take us there. (less)
