Sarah S.:
What do you find most challenging during the
writing process?
Melanie P. Falina:
That's a great question! I think the most challenging
thing is just finding the time to write. I prefer to be
alone and in a quiet space when I write but that's not
always possible. And I have written on crowded trains
and planes, in waiting rooms, etc. because I don't want
to ignore the inspiration when it calls to me, and I don't
want to fall out of the habit of writing regularly either.
But just like making time to go to the gym when life
already has you bogged down with responsibilities, I have
to make time to write too.
Stay tuned!

Cindy F.:
Do you have a favorite poem?
If yes, which one and why?
Melanie P. Falina:
I think I probably have one favorite per book,
but not one favorite from all of my books combined.
My favorite in Rooftop Rhapsody is "This Night In May"
where I talk about walking around the Eiffel Tower at
night. When I re-read that poem I can still feel everything
I felt that night, it's kind of like that poem is a time capsule
for me and I can just open it back up and relive it all over again.

Are there any other places you've been
inspired to write about?

Absolutely! I am currently working on a
few others based on time I'd spent in Egypt, Turkey, and the Netherlands.
