Mocha Memoirs Press Focus #9: V.G. Harrison
What are the themes and subjects you tend to revisit in your work?
Anyone can be a hero and you don’t have to be a brooding jackass for it to be believable. Brains win out over brawn, which is why my heroines rely on their wits more than anything else. They’re pilots, mechanical engineers, scientists, etc. Sometimes, all it takes is for them to be in the right place at the wrong time or vice versa.
What is the most difficult part of your artistic process?
Seeing an idea through to the end. I forget I am my first and most important fan. Everyone else comes second. If I lose interest in an idea, then that means I’m not having fun with it anymore and neither will readers. I’ve tried both plotting and pantsing and it doesn’t matter.
How do your writer friends help you become a better writer? Or do they not?
Their success makes me want to succeed. I see how much they enjoy writing and how passionate they are about their stories, and I want to feel the same way about mine. That’s probably why I LOVE hanging out with them at conventions.
