Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am never without a book whether it’s reading one or writing one! I’ve written 23 books so far…sweet love stories, spicy romances, suspenseful mysteries and thrillers…to cookbooks! My first book, Closure, is an FBI romantic suspense sparked from my many years as a School Council Chair where I hosted annual cyber-safety seminars with our local police to educate parents for them and their children to be safe online. I also love Hallmark Christmas movies!! which ignite my passion to write small-town holiday romance and award me with being in the top 50 Amazon authors for holiday romance! When I’m not with a book…I’m with family. Especially my very cute grand-furry-daughter Miss Bailey. A 14 pound Chihauhau-Jack Russell-Pug. And of course…watching a beautiful sunset here on the east coast in Nova Scotia, Canada! And love to hear from my readers…they make me smile!
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Christmas Back Home – a sweet small-town holiday romance. There’s just something about small towns and romance! Inspired from my addiction to Hallmark Christmas movies!!! It was the only television station on in my house since November 1st lol
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Not really…I don’t think lol I write wherever, whenever…even pull over from driving if a thought hits me and make notes. To me it seems usual lol
What authors, or books have influenced you?
So many I couldn’t name that all! Love Agatha Christie mysteries, read every Danielle Steele and James Patterson. They’ve all influenced me as I go from mystery to romance in my writing.
