““I write from Spirit. When it’s time for me to write, I have to lose myself in that world - meet my characters (even in non-fiction) and build a relationship with them. Sometimes they lead me somewhere geographically to support the creation. Before motherhood, I could lock myself in a room for three days straight. Now, it’s all about negotiating. At first, my characters were relentless about their time. I would feel overwhelmed trying to hold space for both my reality and theirs.””
