Raquel Byrnes asked S.E. Sasaki:

How does your artwork help with your writing?

S.E. Sasaki Thank you for this question, Raquel. It is a very good one. I am a very 'visual' writer. I write what I 'see'. For me, the challenge is finding the correct words in the right sequence to convey what I visualize and create the emotions I want in my reader. My artwork helps me envision the scenes in my stories. Creating pictures stimulates my creative side. For example, I have created a series of dragon paintings that have become the basis for a dragon trilogy I am almost finished writing. In this way, my artwork can definitely compliment my writing just by stimulating my imagination.
