How I Write

There’s no quiet bungalow away from the hustle and bustle of the modern world for KG.
Inspiration can strike anywhere, any time, so no matter where you might find them out in the wild, there’s a mental dialogue, mulling over a scene or plotting the next adventure going on.
Known to scrawl on napkins and receipts, the only method is to always be writing or thinking about writing.
