Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
Well..this is my first book I have made public. I’ve written a few short stories over the years, some random stuff, but nothing I have actively shared.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Behind the Fence is my first one. I guess I was inspired to show that there is much more to people then just what you see, each person is a cultivation of their history and environment. Good or bad, they are who they are. And they are responsible for their reactions to that cultivation.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Do I wear the same shirt when I write? No…I write in an obsessed frenzy. Nothing will motivate me, then all of a sudden I will sit down and loose myself. But, I’m pretty sure that is common for folks.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I have always been a huge fan of many genres. I can not pinpoint any specific person. As my life has changed, my tastes have changed. I am currently a huge fan of Phillipa Gregory. I love how she shows that there is another viewpoint to consider.
What are you working on now?
I’m wrapping up my second book, Burning Bricks. And currently brainstorming for number three.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I have no clue. I’m new at all of this.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Um…I am one….
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
To thine own self be true.
What are you reading now?
“Witching Hour”…I have read it about 30 times, but it still entertains me.
What’s next for you as a writer?
Just working on the three in this series. Then, who knows? My life adventure will take me places that I probably can’t predict.
If you were going to be stranded on a desert island and allowed to take 3 or 4 books with you what books would you bring?
Hmm…good question. Probably “Outlander,” “The White Queen” and “Guardian Angels.” A little romance, some history and something to scare me.
