A Little About You………

I am a wife and mother of two plus a very needy Brittany Spaniel. My world consists of volunteering at my children’s school, keeping everyone on schedule, tutoring writing students, writing book reviews and . . . I know there is something else I do, now if I could just remember what it is. Oh yeah! I’m an author who needs more time to write.

A Little About Your Writing……….

I write military/romance/suspense; erotica; children’s picturebooks and will soon delve into the paranormal realm.

What Inspired You To Start Writing?

I started writing stories in grade school, always feel the need to journal every vacation I’ve ever taken, and write lists about what to write lists about. The need to write has always been within. When I had my first child, I was lucky enough to be able to stay home and start my “dream” job.

How Has Writing Changed Your Life?

Creating novels and stories is like curling up with a soft blanket in front of a warm fire on a cold, rainy day. A feeling of comfort and happiness overtakes me when I open up a world only I can begin and end.

What Is Your Favourite Book, Ever?

Ever? Well, the book I have the fondest memory of is called “The Peculiar Miss Picket.” It was a Scholastic book published in the 1970’s, I believe. The paperback belonged to my older sister. The cover entranced me and I made her read it to me over and over again. I now have the weathered copy sitting in my bedside table. I still pull it out every once in a while and read it to my children.

What Is The Best Piece Of Writing Advice You Could Give, And Why?

Don’t give up. Never give up. Somewhere, someday, someway, you will be published and your work will get the recognition it deserves.

If You Were A Dragon, What Kind Of Dragon Would You Be?

I would be Queen of the Dragons, of course. Royal to the core with flowing cape and gown to match my rather grandiose, bejewelled tiara.
