Interview With Author Holly Clark
Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
My name is Holly Clark. From Chaos to Connections is my first book. I am currently working on a children’s book series as well to assist in bringing emotional intelligence into the classroom.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
From Chaos to Connection: A Handbook for Harmony in Today’s Classroom
It was inspired by the state of the public school system in America. As a whole, it values the teaching of wrote memorization and “common core” over nurturing young minds into healthy, kind, responsible members of society. This is a short handbook designed to help any teacher bring peace to their classroom by implementing different techniques.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I like to rhyme, use sarcasm and poetry. I believe my children’s books reflect more of that style.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Shel Silverstein, Dr. Bob Crawford, Jim Rohn
What are you working on now?
A children’s book series. The first is titled Max the Mischievous Monkey Masters Mindfulness. Each book in the series focuses on a different character building their own character with help from their teacher, librarian, and classmates.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Right now it is Amazon.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
No, as I am new and still have so much to learn.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
You didn’t come this far only to come this far.
What are you reading now?
Communicate Your Feelings by Nic Saluppo
What’s next for you as a writer?
The Children’s book series
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?
Life From the Top of the Mind by Dr. Bill Crawford
Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein
War & Peace (need a long one in case I’m there awhile)
The Far Side Collection by Gary Larson for some laughs
