Serious Round
Do you stick to one genre or skip around? Why?
I skip around because it's more fun to push the limits by challenging your writing comfort zone. It's also more conducive to growing as a hacker of words from Word into books.
Can you recall a particular scene that was painful or traumatic for you to write?
By miles, the most painful thing to write was the showing of the death of a main character within a ghost series. She had to die to become the ghost, Mary. This writing was as traumatic as anything penned to date.
