    Hi Leila,

    Glad you liked the book! I actually had no idea where PIECES was going when I started...I knew the characters pretty well, and I knew the general concept of the story (twins becoming estranged and then reuniting as a result of Eve's illness), but I had no idea what the catalyst was going to be that drove the twins apart, and didn't know Kerry was going to help Eve die.

    I always try to write my way into a book. I'm not one of those people who can come up with an outline and stick to it, I need the story to come organically.

    But every writer works differently...I'd just say you should do what you find works best for you. If you can come up with a complete story idea, beginning, middle and end, then kudos to you! There are definitely people who can work that way successfully. I'm just not capable of doing that myself...If I wrote that way, I think it would come out sounding forced.

    Good luck!
