#WriterWednesday with Teresa Inge

I would like to welcome my friend, Teresa Inge, back to the blog for #WriterWednesday!

Favorite thing to do when you have free time: Watch TCM classic movies. I love black and white films and mysteries.

The thing you’ll always move to the bottom of your to do list: Folding laundry.

Things you need when you’re in your writing cave: Depending on the day, sweet tea or Rose’ wine and my laptop.

Things that distract you from writing: People talking.

Hardest thing about being a writer: Finding the time to write.

Easiest thing about being a writer: Signing books and meeting mystery book lovers.

The coolest thing you’ve bought online: A Turtlebox. It’s the ultimate outdoor, waterproof, hi-fidelity speaker!

The thing you wished you’d never bought. Too many clothes.

Favorite snacks: Stacy’s Bagel Chips.

Things that make you want to gag: Not much. I like most anything.

Favorite places you’ve been: The Outerbanks in North Carolina. It’s my favorite place on earth.

Places you never want to go to again: I love to travel almost anywhere.

Favorite things to do: Show my award winning, 1955 Thunderbird at car shows, attend book signings for my books, and drink sweet tea.

Things you’d run through a fire or eat bugs to get out of doing: Did I mention that I do not like to fold laundry?

Most daring thing you’ve ever done: Buy a classic hot rod car. I love it!

Something you chickened out from doing: Parasailing. They put the vest on me, and I couldn’t do it.

The most exciting thing about your writing life: Meeting readers and fans of my books.

The one thing you wish you could do over in your writing life: Start my novel earlier.

The nicest thing a reader said to you: That they had circled my name on the book festival brochure and was looking forward to meeting me.

The craziest thing a reader said to you: They don’t read much.

Best piece of advice you received from another writer: My friend, Judi McCoy, a romance and mystery writer, asked me who my reading audience was, and I didn’t know as a new author. She said to always know my audience. Judi passed away several years ago and I miss her and the advice she gave me.

Something you would tell a younger you about your writing: Join a writer’s group, network, and continue to develop your writing craft.
