"You go to some of these inner city places and it's so sad when you look at the crime. You have people - and I've seen this, and I've sort of witnessed it - in fact, in two cases I have actually witnessed it. They lock themselves into apartments, petrified to even leave, in the middle of the day."

I have a writing space in my apartment, but I prefer to write at coffee shops. When I'm stuck, I take a walk and spend time outside to clear my mind. I get inspired on these walks, often getting new ideas for stories and finding solutions to the problems that need to be fixed in the draft I am working on.
