There's a nice interview I took part in over at a fellow author and blogger's ... blog. It was fun to think about questions, such as why do I write? Again, for the first time.

No endless sentences without break, and no spontaneous creation nor no beat in Detroit, with no food and sleeping in the library reading about the woods and the Oregon trail.

There’d be no protagonist and there’d be no writer, at least the same kind of writer that actually happened.
