Exercise is one of the best ways to get rid of a writer's block! Especially when you have music on and the images form in your head!
I heart Ellen!
... yay for raw sugar!
Wow; interesting! I enjoy Stephen King.
I love the pack of writing Susans + Jim!
Ditto, Melissa. I love all the Susans in her life. An Abundance of Susans.
That was a fun little interview :) I like reading about author answers to random questions!
