10. It is about a group of five souls
who are connected through a series of lives. I REALLY should stop being so lazy and work on it.

I must say, I never understand why anyone needs ask a writer "Where do you get your ideas?" because ideas are, to coin a phrase, a dime a dozen. Heck, if I could sell ideas for that rate I could get rich. My essential problem is that I'm lousy at plotting.

Actually, I should probably write the story about the person behind all the ideas for stories and novels, but again, all I have is the story idea, and have no clue as to where to take it.
