What's your ideal writing day look like?

Ideally, I sit down with nothing at all in my mind and write a brand new story that surprises and frightens me. Then I put my shoes on and go to Chipotle.

Any big summer plans?

Write, teach, go to Chipotle.

What can people expect from your reading?

Nothing about Chipotle.
