Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I have written my first book this year. I spent over 20 years in education and decided to leave my job in order to pursue my purpose of starting a business.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Power, Love, and a Sound Mind: How Three Simple Truths Changed My Life is my latest book, inspired by my decision to step out in faith and leave a career in education and start a recruitment consulting business.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I usually have to drink hot tea or coffee while writing.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Authors such as Joel Osteen and Steven Furtick have influenced my perspective on writing and have allowed me to be bold in expressing my thought in writing. They are honest and real in their writing, and I appreciate their transparency.
What are you working on now?
I am working on an inspirational daily meditation based on my first book as well as a book about true surrender to God’s will.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
My website is https://www.boldfaithpower.com.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Don’t allow others to influence your words. Sometimes you may have to be in seclusion when writing, even if just for a brief time. Let God speak to you before you write. And invest in a proofreader and/or editor as well as other professionals as much as possible to make sure your work is your best.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Live life on purpose without regrets.
What are you reading now?
In addition to the Bible, I am reading books by Joyce Meyer, Joel Osteen and Steven Furtick.
What’s next for you as a writer?
I hope to engage more with readers and encourage others to pursue their purpose.
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?
I would bring the Bible, Joyce Meyer book (any), Steven Furtick (any), and Joel Osteen (any).
