8. Share a snippet from one of your favorite dialogue scenes you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.
"All in good time, Jack. Patience is not really your virtue it seems." Koz just so slightly lifted the corners of his mouth. But if there was anything funny about the situation, the joke was lost on Jack."Many people would agree with you." He really tried not to sound offended and failed. His voice betrayed the mixed feelings he got whenever people assumed he wasn't patient just because he was asking a question.The emotions in his voice didn't escape Koz' attention. "You say it like an insult.""Didn't you mean what you said as an insult." Jack shrugged. It wasn't even a question. Just a statement.
I love the way Jack is the younger one here, but he will stand up for himself in a way most adults can’t. He doesn’t pout, he doesn’t scream. He somewhat accepted that people are not taking him seriously and he shows them that that is misguided.
14. What’s the worst writing advice you’ve ever come across?
I don’t think there is bad writing advice per se. Some advice is just not the right kind for a person. Someone can get inspired by the same advice that discourages someone from writing altogether.Bad writing advice for me is such that discourages me from writing. That’s very subjective and I can’t think of one right now. I tend to suppress and forget ideas that make me NOT want to write, so I can write. *cough*
19. Stephen King once said that his muse is a man who lives in the basement. Do you have a muse?
Has been answered here and the answer is still the same. Inspiration sometimes comes in weird ways. For me it’s often other people’s art or ideas that give me the impulse for my own creations.
