Who:<\/b>\u00a0Jeff Zentner<\/span><\/p>\n

Claim To Fame: <\/b>Jeff Zentner is the author of\u00a0New York Times<\/i>\u00a0Notable Book\u00a0The Serpent King<\/i><\/a>,\u00a0Goodbye Days<\/a>,<\/i>\u00a0and\u00a0Rayne & Delilah\u2019s Midnite Matinee<\/a>.<\/i>\u00a0He has won the William C.

Praise For Jeff: <\/strong>[On\u00a0The Serpent King<\/a>]<\/em>\u00a0“Pens would run dry if readers were to underline extraordinary sentences–the kind that are so true, or funny, or beautiful that they clamp hearts.” \u2013Shelf Awareness<\/i>, Starred<\/em><\/p>\n

When<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0where<\/a>\u00a0do you like to write? Are you the\u00a0same-thing-every-day kind of writer<\/a>\u00a0or can you write anytime, anywhere?<\/h3>\n

I actually write on the bus, on my iPhone, on my bus commute to and from work in downtown Nashville. I\u2019ve written at least 80% of all three of my books that way, and I\u2019m almost done with a fourth. That\u2019s really my only writing time each day.<\/p>\n

Do you have any\u00a0pre-writing rituals<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0habits<\/a>\u00a0before you sit down to write?<\/h3>\n

I like to go on walks<\/a> and listen to music<\/a>. Those are times of great inspiration for me. I think a lot about what I\u2019m going to write the next day. Because I have such limited writing time, I have to make the most of it.<\/p>\n

What do you do when the writing isn\u2019t coming easy<\/a>? Do you struggle at all with that dreaded enemy of writing: writer\u2019s block<\/a>?<\/h3>\n

I force myself to be bored. When my mind is quiet, it\u2019s hungry. When it\u2019s hungry, it starts to make its own food, in the form of stories and inspiration. I can almost always circumvent writer\u2019s block that way.<\/p>\n

When did your aspirations to become a writer begin? At what age did you start writing in hopes of making a living out of it?<\/h3>\n

In 2012, when I was 34. Up until that time, being a writer had never occurred to me. I thought the kind of people who write books were very different from me. Before 2012, all my creative energy went to music.<\/p>\n

Writers have to be master prioritizers \u2014 juggling all sorts of projects and deadlines at the same time. That\u2019s certainly the case for you. Do you have any methods for managing tasks and time to stay productive and not let overwhelm sneak in?<\/span><\/h3>\n

I do a lot of planning and I\u2019m very disciplined with my time. When it\u2019s writing time, I don\u2019t procrastinate, because I can\u2019t afford to. Procrastination is the enemy of writing. Also, I like to limit my social media time. It can be a real black hole.<\/p>\n

Deciding on an idea to pursue writing about can be the most challenging aspect for a writer. How do you come to find the stories and lives<\/a> that become the subjects of your books? Are there habits or daily tricks you use to think about book ideas?<\/h3>\n

All of my stories start with people who fascinate me, whose lives I want to inhabit. The stories come organically out of the struggles, hopes, desires, and hurdles I imagine them facing.<\/p>\n

Along with the books<\/a>, you are a songwriter. Do you have a different approach or mental frameworks for writing each? Do the mechanics of your writing routine change?<\/h3>\n

Songs don\u2019t require you to think in terms of arcs or journeys the way novels do. Songs can be a snapshot. A sad song will probably begin and end as a sad song. So I have to pace myself a lot in my thinking when I write novels. They can\u2019t be snapshots the way a song can.<\/p>\n

How do you judge a productive writing day<\/a> or an unproductive day? What\u2019s the sign of a good day for you?<\/span><\/h3>\n

If I get one or two truly good sentences out of a day, that\u2019s a good writing day for me. If I manage to say something that feels very true to me, that\u2019s a good writing day. If I feel something while I\u2019m writing, that\u2019s a good writing day.<\/p>\n

What books<\/a> or writers<\/a> have most influenced the way you think and the way you write?<\/h3>\n

My biggest influence is probably Stephen King, which is funny to say because I\u2019m not at all a horror writer. But Stephen King is as good a chronicler of friendship as he is of horror, and I love to write about friendship. IT<\/em><\/a>, The Body<\/a>\u2014<\/em>these are masterworks of friendship and they\u2019ve been hugely influential on my own writing. Plus, he just comes across as a really decent, generous guy\u2014the sort I\u2019d hope to be.<\/p>\n

What is your advice to aspiring writers<\/a>? Or better, what\u2019s something aspiring writers should NOT do?<\/h3>\n

You don\u2019t need to write every kind of book. You\u2019re allowed to love books that you\u2019re not supposed to write. Honor your own voice. Tell the stories that only you can tell.<\/p>\n
