Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I live in Niagara Falls, Ontario about 10 minutes away from the falls. I am an artist, singer-songwriter, writer and love to read.
My love of words started in early childhood when I would make up fictitious words and songs. I have been a songwriter since being gifted in 1983, and have recorded several songs of her own as well as the song, Proud to be Canadian in 1991.
I write from life and true experiences, usually with a supernatural twist. On January 25, 2007, my first devotional, A Glimpse of the Cross, on the Mustard Seed Ministries Site was published; it is based on a vision. Cliffhanger(Over the Cliff) was published in November 2007 in Fate Magazine, a short story come true forewarned by a dream. Ms. Parks writes based on dreams that come true, or real life experiences.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
More lessons from the School of Hard Knocks, Volume 2. Just more awesome supernatural stories that are true.
