Great Questions that I need to answer!

Why do you write? To answer quickly the first answer off the top of my head is... If I don't write the words down they will continue to ache inside my head. Repeating like -- and I don't mean to date myself -- but like a record player needle stuck on a scratch. Scenes playing and replaying in my head until finally they have to burst onto the page in all their anguish, happiness or laughter. Other than that, I write so my family would be proud of me, so that I can leave them with a part of me.
