With all the stress of editing and getting ready to promote a new book, there's something so fun and relaxing just about the initial research with writing a new book. I'm about to start co-writing a new project with an amazing writing and man. I LOVE the fun that comes with starting. Picking names and personalities. Picking time frames and doing research on foods, hangouts and lingo. It's entirely too much fun for me.

How about you guys? What's one of your favorite parts of the writing process?
