My writing process

What writing process? I usually start with a brief idea or a single sentence. For example, for Innocent, my current WIP, I started with a single opening sentence that popped into my head: "Gabriel Mason might look like an angel, but he sure as hell didn't sing like one." That's all I had to begin with. Admittedly there were a few vague plot points percolating in my head, but I never, ever carefully work out a detailed plot in advance. I sit down and begin typing, and the story takes me where it wants to go. I admire people who can plot, but alas, I'm not one of them:-).
