Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’m best described as a hot mess express, who tries her best. To coupon, to mom, to wife, and to pet all the dogs. All of them. I started my blog in 2017, as well as wrote my first (and as of now) only book. I am a mother, and right now a fiancé, with plans to be married by November 2018. I enjoy staying at home with my little one, and my Doberman Pinscher. For fun, I like to go on the boat, walk the river, go to Disney whenever possible, and hangout with my mom friends. I run my own blog, and specialize in all things mom, wife, and a frugal life. Follow along my journey of motherhood, and surviving on nap-time.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
The Postpartum Party was inspired by my passion to help mother everywhere recover – postpartum! When I was recovering, and searched the Internet, my results came up very scarce. I’m hoping to help as many moms as I can out there!
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I wouldn’t say unusual, but I definitely don’t have any patterns! I just write when it comes to me!
What authors, or books have influenced you?
J.K Rowling is definitely my favorite author! Call me cliche, but I am a HUGE Harry Potter fan! The fact that was she denied by so many different publishers and is now basically the most successful author just really inspires me to not give up hope, ever!
What are you working on now?
I am currently working on producing more content on my blog, and since I have just completed my first book I am already thinking about content for my next book, most likely on pregnancy!
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I am really still figuring this one out, for sure!
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Live your best life, and continue to persevere, even when things get hard/ you aren’t making any sales just yet!
What are you reading now?
A Cursed Child! The Harry Potter play spin off.
What’s next for you as a writer?
Going to continue to try and create great content on my blog, as well as work on another short ebook here shortly!
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?
All of the Harry Potter books!
