#WriterWednesday with Author T. K. Bush

I’d like to welcome T. K. Bush to the blog today for #WriterWednesday!

Hardest thing about being a writer: Having the courage to share my craft with the world.

Easiest thing about being a writer: The ideas. They come no matter where I am or what I’m doing. Sometimes I wish I had a ‘pause’ key for my brain.

Things you need for your writing sessions: a quiet space, uninterrupted time, snacks, and caffeine or wine

Things that hamper your writing: Being interrupted when I’m in a flow. Procrastinating and not giving myself enough time, even though I seem to work best under pressure 😊

Something you’re really good at: Making friends and working on creative projects, like gift bags and event décor.

Something you’re really bad at: Saying no when I need to. Cooking 😊 (When I met my now-husband, it was the first thing I told him.) “In case it’s a deal breaker, I don’t cook.” It worked out because he’s a great cook!

Last best thing you ate: Popcorn chicken

Last thing you regret eating: Buffalo chicken dip at 1 am. (Delicious, but hard on my stomach at that hour.)

The last thing you ordered online: cat supplies from Amazon (me and Amazon have a very close relationship)

The last thing you regret buying: an online mug that looked like a stack of books. It looked fantastic in the pics, but when it arrived, it looked like a project I might have made in middle school art class.

Things you’d walk a mile for: A bookstore or to see a good friend I haven’t seen in a while.

Things that make you want to run screaming from the room: Spiders or Palmetto bugs in Florida (a fancy name for a giant roach… yuck).

Things you always put in your books: Something that relates to my life outside of writing (e.g., the medical field, characters, or setting).

Things you never put in your books: Cursing or anything vulgar. I don’t mind reading it, but it’s a personal choice because I want my kids and family to be able to read my books.

Things to say to an author: It’s amazing what you’re doing. Great job. We’re rooting for you. I can’t wait to read your books!

Things to say to an author if you want to be fictionally killed off in their next book: How hard can it be to write a book? You haven’t finished your book yet?

Favorite books (or genre): Psychological Thrillers, Romantic Suspense

Books you wouldn’t buy: Horror, Fantasy (I love fantasy movies, but I have a hard time getting into the books. I think it’s the complicated world-building. I am always impressed by authors who can do it. It’s an amazing talent.) Sci-Fi.

Favorite things to do: Reading a good book, going on cruises, hanging out with close friends and family, and traveling.

Things you’d run through a fire or eat bugs to get out of doing: At the moment, speaking in front of a big audience, but I’m trying to overcome that.
