2020 has delayed my progress, but I'm still hoping to get it out this year.

It is in the process of being written. Pandemic has put a bit of a damper on my progress.

It's a tie between Scott Lynch, Brandon Sanderson, Brent Weeks, and Phillip Rothfuss.

I'm hoping this year, but alas, I am still writing the book, so that is a difficult question to answer.
Temple West
Oh gosh, that's hard. I means, obvs love Darcy and Elizabeth from P&P. But I also love Wash and Zoe from Firefly. And I actually really liked Caroline and Tyler from Vampire Diaries before they broke up. And a bagillion more. Too many great couples.

Hoping December 2016!

Not yet -- all I can say at this point is that I'm hoping it will be out by Christmas, but I'll be able to say more soon!

Cashmere, yo. For some reason Goodreads is not letting me leave it at that, so I will repeat my answer with more enthusiasm. "I'M WORKING ON CASHMERE, YO!"
Temple West
I didn't, for a long time. Then I made myself sit down, every day, at the same time, and write. I wasn't allowed to leave, even if I didn't write a word. You'd be surprised how fast you start writing when you don't allow yourself to look at your e-mail, or the internet, or the TV, or other books.

The entourage, free clothes, and adoring fans. Oh wait, I'm confusing myself with real celebrities again.
For real though, the satisfaction of creating something from nothing.

By writing. Half the time when I start a chapter, I only have the barest knowledge of what's supposed to happen. Usually a couple thousand words go by that I could never have predicted.

Write every day at the same time for the same amount of time. Habit breeds progress. Make writing a priority, not just a hobby, no matter how old or young you are.

Yes! It's called Cashmere and it will be released this year (2016)
Temple West
This year! Still working on the book.
Temple West
The listed pub date on many sites is incorrect. I'm actually still writing the book!
Temple West
Hey Sarah! This year! I don't have a pub date yet because I'm still working on the manuscript but if you're a member of my newsletter (which you can sign up for on www.ByTempleWest.com), you'll be the first to know!
