Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’ve been writing for at least half of my life, reading for a third of it and now apologizing for bringing math into a simple bio for about ten seconds. Sorry. Though my arithmatic skills never improved that much, I believe my storytelling has definitely lifted-off.
I gather my ideas from every day life—and sometimes the extraordinary and imaginative—and have given up a day living without a tiny notebook always on hand or a phone app for grammatically-disinclined scribblings.
I might spend my time romping with dragons, tussling with warriors or trying to stay one step ahead of a cunning rogue of my own creation but physically I just a simple Oregonian girl. I like my rain and I like my coffee. You should see my book collection, it’s spectacular.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Like the saying goes, the first draft is the worst your book will ever be. The first draft is YOU telling YOURSELF the story. Don’t give up.
What are you reading now?
Kindling the Moon. Starting Crimes Against Magic right after.
What’s next for you as a writer?
I always have books in the works- fantasy, urban fantasy, even sci-fi!
