I am a huge fan. Your By a Thread series if one of my all time favorites. I was wonder what is next? I need something good to read :)
R.L. Griffin Hey Pam. Sorry I'm just seeing this, the last month has been really crazy. I'm actually not writing anything right now. However, percolating in the back of my mind is Billy's story. When I do have time to write I usually write what is at it's limit in my brain and I think if I write anything next it will be Billy's story. You'll see the entire gang again, even Jesse. I'm looking forward to it and definitely need to reread the entire series to get started.

Did, you ever or would you ever consider putting a list or blurb at the end of your book "Quiet Lies", about sociopathic behavior so that it may help some women who read your book not fall into the same path as your character?
R.L. Griffin This is a great question and I think would be so hard to have one blurb or paragraph to ward women away from potential sociopaths. However, I certainly think I could be put in a blurb about warning signs. What a good idea.

This question contains spoilers... (view spoiler)
R.L. Griffin Veronica, I'm so sorry I'm just seeing this. I don't answer that question in this book. How annoying is that? I will answer it in No Chaser Required, which is a stand alone book with some of the same characters told from Laura's perspective.

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?
R.L. Griffin Read, read everything from smut to the classics. Read bestsellers. Read more. Then write. Don't be scared to write, writing is the easy part. Revise, revise, revise. Let someone read it and hide in the corner. Revise more. Put it away and live. Drink alcohol, have sex, love your family and take a shower.

Decide if you are going to publish this bad boy. If you are...

Get a professional editor. Get a professional cover. Drink some more.
Let some beta readers read it. Sit in the corner with drink.
Revise.
Stop looking at it.
Stop making changes.
Stop.
Publish.

How do you get inspired to write?
R.L. Griffin I'm inspired by everything. I write to music and music drives my emotions while I write. I could see a color that could inspire an entire chapter. Usually my thoughts hit me while I'm running or showering, both really inopportune time to be thinking up stories.

How do you deal with writer’s block?
R.L. Griffin I don't write unless thoughts are flowing. I'm self published so my timelines are my own. I can't force writing. If I do it's shit.
