“A New Form,” ovenbaked clay by Alex Irhin each other. All people want is to be loved. Love is profoundly wonderful and Billy Ray is a character based on my brother, who is always sweet and caring.

Q A

Why did you kill Billy Ray? When do you believe it is the time to kill characters and why? It was horrible, beautiful, and devastating, but I knew that something bad had happened in that trailer and it lets the reader know that life is a prize. You don’t know how much you love someone until they are gone. Life and death is a novel. You never know what will happen.

Q A

What else would you like your readers or young writers to know? Characters start to live on their own ans struggle. As a writer, you must be determined to write and bring your solutions. • Love writing is another universe. The writer learns the craft. Writing enriches life; so does the craft. Love writers work because they fall in love with their images . • Write whatever the character thinks and make them do it instead. Include the five senses—you seduce the readers with senses. • This novel is dedicated to anyone who is or was 17.
