A first line has one job: make the second line unavoidable. The one I built Blood Echoes around was "Twins always finish each other's sentences. Especially in prison." I rewrote it about ten times. What's a first line you've never forgotten?

"I'll read just one chapter before bed." The sun is now rising. I have questions for the author. I have emotional damage. I have to be at work in two hours. Worth it. Every time. What book did this to you most recently?

People ask if it's hard to kill off a character. YES… EVERY time. I've spent months with these people. I know how they take their coffee. But a story where nobody can be lost is a story where nothing is at stake. The grief is the price of the meaning. Which fictional death still hurts you?

You are allowed to stop reading a book you don't like. I sure have. You didn't fail it. It didn't fail you. Life is short and your TBR is tall. Put it down. Guilt free. I'm giving you official permission. What's the last book you DNF'd, and no shame?

The myth: authors write in peaceful, candlelit silence. The reality: 90 seconds of writing between interruptions, on repeat, forever. And honestly? I wouldn’t trade the chaos. What interrupts YOUR focus? youtube.com/shorts/Q3UsS... #writingtime #authorhumor #writingchallenge #author

My search history as a writer is deeply concerning - and I will not be explaining it to anyone, thank you. Least of all law enforcement. "How long can a body..." for the PLOT. It's for the plot. It's always for the plot. Writers, what's the worst thing in YOUR search history right now?

For years I didn't feel worthy of love. I genuinely believed it was for other people. Then I met my wife, and she upended every bit of that. I wrote a whole memoir about it, called Un-Worthy, because it's the truest thing ever. Has someone ever loved you past what you thought you deserved?

Naming a character is weirdly the hardest part of writing a book. Get it right and they feel real instantly. Get it wrong and they never quite come alive, no matter how good the scene is. I named a character Jet once, and he wrote himself after that. What's a name that just fits perfectly?

Before I had kids, I thought I understood fear. Then my sons were born, and a brand new kind showed up. The kind where their safety matters more than your own life, instantly and without asking. That fear is the whole engine of Blood Echoes. A mother, a daughter, & a threat she can't fight. (Cont’d)
