Murder In Malibu is definitely inspired by my dad. He taught me to love murder mysteries (but not gory ones!)

I don't know. Sometimes I'll go months without writing and then it just starts up again in a frenzy. But I do love murder mysteries. When I was a kid my dad and I would love those summer nights when a Miss Marple (Agatha Christie) or an Ellery Queen TV show would come on. I learned to love that type of mystery from my dad.

Just as I get lost in a good book I can get lost in my writing. Its therapeutic meditation for me a lot of the time.

I deal with writer's block by simply "writing through it". You are going to write bad stuff once in a while and that's fine. You can fix it later. I think maybe writer's freeze up when they see they wrote a bad sentence or something. Don't worry so much. Write through the bad stuff and the good stuff will be come.
