One of my favorite things in books is watching someone make the mistake. You know it's going to happen. You keep thinking: 'Don't do it!' But of course they're going to do it. It's riveting. You learn through them that it's okay. It's the ecstatic fall, where you watch someone make that terrible decision, and there's such pleasure in it.

Writers usually don't get to pick our own covers. I know it's surprising to hear that.

Inspiration comes from everywhere. From life, observing people, etc. From movies and books you love. From research.
