April asked P.C. Cast:

how do you come up with your stories? I try to write a short story for a class and I am haveing trouble. Can you give me some tips if you can? many thanks

P.C. Cast No one can tell you how to come up with ideas for fiction. It's an individual thing. I can tell you that the more you live the more ideas you'll have. Research - travel - read - daydream...I also have a entire post dedicated to advice for aspiring authors on my blog. Good luck!
