Hi Alice! I always had a fascination with storytelling ever since I was a little girl... I've been writing since I was 13. Not stories, just thoughts and ideas, even questions. However I always dreamed of becoming a real writer or at least write one novel but how do you start? I mean there are ideas and characters yes but how do you actually write an entire novel?
Alice Hoffman
I think the best idea for someone who wants to write a novel is to take a workshop or class with other writers and a great writing teaching. It's a long process going from ideas to a full novel but worth it!!!

I think your genius is that you return adults to the magical time when they first experienced entering a wholly different world in the reading of a book. Your books are like fairy tales for adults. And I wonder if you are like Jonas in The Giver, seeing red in a world that is gray to most? Do you think writers see things differently?
