Sunday Scaries? Never heard of ‘em 🥤📚✨

This week's #WritersRoutine is with Gabriel Dozal, author of THE BORDER SIMULATOR, out now! What do you do beyond writing? I love playing tennis and in a way it is cross training for my writing. I think a lot about strategy and tennis is a very creative sport. I guess I think most sports are very creative endeavors. Would anyone say ballet is NOT a creative endeavor? I feel like most sports are incredibly creative and I think it can be like cross training for your writing mentality What would surprise people the most about your routine? Maybe this is not surprising to non poets but I never know exactly what a poem or a book (like The Border Simulator) is really going to be about; I let the language lead me. So, I try and create as much vivid and exciting language as possible and then I filter through all the good and bad parts. Once I have a a few pages of what I consider quality writing I try and distill that into a poem or two Where/When do you write? If I can write in the morning that is ideal but one thing I learned about overcoming any kind of writer’s block is that you have to be ready to write at any part of the day, especially if you teach like I do. Do you write alone, or with others? I love to write with others! I try and gather my writing friends here in Tucson at coffee shops. I feel like I can feed off others’ energies and hopeful I offer them some inspiration as well. There’s something about being in a community of writers that actually write together that is so valuable. What inspires you? The desert! It was Benjamin ALire Saenz that said “I was born in the desert heat and I will die in the desert heat” I feel the same way, I love the southwest and I hope to always return to it.

This week's #WritersRoutine is with Hannah Sloane, author of THE FREEDOM CLAUSE, out now from @thedialpress! What is your outlining process? I focus on the narrative arc of my characters. Where are they at the beginning of the novel when the reader first meets them, and where are they by the end? In what ways have they grown or surprised themselves? Once I have a better sense of that journey, the plot begins to sharpen into focus. What inspires you? Anything that makes me feel less alone in the world. Art that reminds me of a time, or a place, or a feeling (mainly, for me, it’s all about feelings). I want art that gives me an emotional hangover, that sits with me for days, that makes me laugh or cry or reminds me we are all imperfect, fragile people going about our lives as best we can, and that failure is part of the equation. Whenever I’m inspired this way, I like to ask myself: why did this move me, what worked, how can I take this feeling and apply it to my own work?

Anyone else craving that cool air, crunchy leaves, warm coffee, magical season that we call Fall? The season might not be here yet, but the books are! Adrienne Young's SPELLS FOR FORGETTING, now out in paperback, is a deeply atmospheric story about ancestral magic, an unsolved murder, and a second chance at true love. The perfect taste of a magical Fall! ID: a copy of Spells For Forgetting sits in a wicker basket surrounded by candles and dried Fall flowers.
