Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’m a lifelong actress/writer born and raised in Hollywood. I’ve written five books, two of them are collections of comedic scenes. I also had one of my plays published and I have a few monologues in a collection.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Just a Theory: a quantum love adventure.
I was watching a documentary about wormholes and parallel lives and that made me think, “what if someone went to a parallel life and it was better than the one they were living?”
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I wrote a short film in a very crowded, dive bar where a loud rock band was playing. Some people might find that distracting, but, I apparently don’t.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Carrie Fisher, Nora Ephron. I also loved Tina Fey’s autobiography.
What are you working on now?
I’m working on a YA novel, “The Traveler’s Tree.” I’m also working on another TV pilot and my memoir book of comedic essays – but I think that’s a long way from being made public.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I tweet, facebook, instagram and i use pinterest to make boards pertaining to my book.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
My motto for life is the motto that fits for writers as well.
Keep Creating.
Keep Positive.
Keep Showing Up.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
keep moving forward.
What are you reading now?
Dan Gilvezan’s latest book, “Soul.” It’s very interesting!
What’s next for you as a writer?
I’d like to be staffed on a TV show, sell a pilot, have more of my plays produced. Until all of that happens, I will just keep writing.
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?
A collection of Neil Simon plays.
A Collection of Christopher Durang plays.
The Little Prince.
My journal. 🙂
