What inspires you to write?
I love the feedback I receive from those who read my work. It is a thrill and a humbling experience to have someone say my writing helped them on their life's journey.

Tell us about your writing process.
I will stew on an idea for days or even weeks and then once it is fully formed, begin to write it down.

For Fiction Writers: Do you listen (or talk to) to your characters?
In the fiction I have written I hear and know the thoughts of my characters.

Who are your favorite authors?
Pearl S. Buck, Harper Lee, and Thomas Harris

How did you decide how to publish your books?
I decided to break into publishing my books by using the self-publishing site KDP.com until I can find a publishing house and a literary agent to pick me up.

What do you think about the future of book publishing?
I cannot see book publishing dying out because people need a means of escape and there is no better way to do so than curling up with a good book.

What genres do you write?
Fiction children's, Non-fiction mental health, Christian Fiction
