Heather asked Richelle Mead:

You often have great one-liners in your books. Do you think of these as you write, or do you carry around a notebook or something to remember ideas that pop up?

Richelle Mead Ha, thanks! It's a mix. Sometimes they come to me as I'm writing. Other times, if I'm having an off-day and not feeling particularly funny, I'll just have to write a scene and then edit it later with better dialogue. :) Ideas come to me all the time when I'm out and about, but I'm terrible about writing them down! I try to memorize them instead...which works most of the time...
