One is always subconsciously processing. What is your favorite time to write? First thing in the morning. It’s best to write before the phone starts ringing and emails start pouring in. Preferably best to write with hot cup of coffee. What’s the best piece of writing advice you’ve ever received and would like to impart to other writers? Write what interests you. Don’t follow trends. If it interests you there is a story there. What excites you most about being a writer in today’s age?
