Why did you become a writer?
Who are your favorite writers?
What advice do you have for an aspiring writer?
What is your writing workday like?
Where do you get your ideas?
What is your favorite part of writing? Your least favorite?

1. Do you have a favorite method or mental exercise to overcome the writer's block?
2. Have you ever experienced writing halfway, and then suddenly lost the passion and inspiration to finish the story? What would you do?
3. Do you somehow know if the novel you were writing at the moment will be a bestseller?

Are you ever embarrassed to read your work aloud to someone you know is going to make fun of you?
If you could change one thing about your book, what would it be?
If you knew your book was awesome, but others thought it was horrible, would you try to conince them that it really is good, or would you think to yourself that it isn't good at all?
=D
I can't think of any SMART questions!!!!
=( I'm sorry...

Are any of your characters based on people you know? If yes, which ones?

please don't ask him/her where they get their ideas/inspirations from..
I think everyone asks that one..
perhaps you can ask them to explain the other side of writting..the business side..perhaps you can ask them to explain how does one get published?...
ask them how long did it take them to write their first novel or how many times did they get rejected..
what advice would they give to someone interested in writting novels?
