AOTW: How has completing this book affected your writing? Did it change the way you will write in the future?
Jennie Nash: This is my breakthrough book! We all have those projects that are magic, and that take us to the next level, and this one is mine. The impact has been huge. I feel a new sense of legitimacy (always a big issue for writers who wonder why we're sitting alone in a room putting words on a page) and an understanding of what it's like to connect to an audience. I'm working with a new sense of thrill. In the future, I will just try to stay true to my voice and my natural style because I know now that it works!
Laney Katz Becker: This was my first novel and my previous writing (for magazines) was all nonfiction. Even though the medical aspects of my book are accurate and factual, I really liked the artistic challenge and freedom of creating characters.
Barbara Delinsky: The only way that completing Uplift has affected my writing is that having taken the time out to do it, I'm now behind with my current novel, so that I'm now writing as fast as I can! Regarding content, Uplift has in no way changed how I write now or will in the future. My great love is fiction; that will never change.
Dr. Jane Plant: I have learned to use less scientific jargon so people other than scientists can understand.
