What literary pilgrimages have you gone on?Īs a writer, what would you choose as your mascot/avatar/spirit animal? I write them as I would see them in a movie. Which of your novels can you imagine made into a movie?Īll of them. The only movies I can’t get into are western. I like action, psychological thrillers, horror, crime, murder, romance, etc. When I was twelve and I wrote my first book (I still have it!) When did you first consider yourself a writer? Because I do this, when they see me writing, they know Mom is not JUST working. Celebrate the small victories together, show them the bad and how to overcome them. Show them the process and how much work it takes to get there. It makes it all that much more special to include your children. Their dreams are JUST as important as their children’s. When my daughter (or son) gets to be my age with their own children, I want them to see that they are never JUST a mom/dad or JUST a wife/husband. We are not just a mom/dad, but our own person with dreams and purposes. I have the worst sleeping habits and could fall asleep pretty much anywhere.

My husband and kids especially get embarrassed when we’re at restaurants.

I have sneeze attacks when my stomach is full after eating. What is something unique/quirky about you? I’ve always been a writer, but the car accident was a blessing in disguise, and the very thing I never knew I needed to push me into taking a chance on publishing.

This was a huge eye-opener in where my life was going as far as my job. Can you, for those who don't know you already, tell something about yourself and how you became an author?Ī few years ago, I was involved in a car accident which put me on bedrest for 6 months.
