Cbernard3 asked Cardeno C.:

I admire your style and subject matter. I have an idea for a gay novel but I don't know how to start. Can you make any suggestions? I was particularly interested in finding out how you chose an editor or did you use one? Thanks, Chuck Bernard chuckbernard54@yahoo.com

Cardeno C. Thank you, Chuck. I don't have any particularly brilliant advice about how to start other than to put fingers to keyboard and go for it. Every writer has a different process (outlines, character lists, bullet points, song lists, etc.) and I'm sure you'll find what works best for you. I have a wonderful editor: http://jaeashley.com/. (Also, I want to make sure you know these questions and answers are public and yours has an email address shown.)
