Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
Heroine: Rising to the Challenge is my first book. I wrote it to encourage women who want to be a force for kindness in their community. Moms want to raise their kids in a positive environment, so why not choose a daily goal that raises the standard of how people are treated.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
To use Heroine: Rising to the Challenge properly, I put some journals on Amazon for writing down the experiences that come with attempting new things. If you click on my name, Amazon shows Scriptures and Scribbles, the paperback journal.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I’ve written fiction for years, but haven’t published it yet. That will happen this summer. My nonfiction was released first because I feel committed to helping women first before entertaining them with fiction.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I’ve read Christian fiction authors like DiAnn Mills, Rachel Hauck, Brandilyn Collins, and Kristen Heitzmann.
What are you working on now?
My fiction is being prepared for release. The first one should be ready this summer.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I love it when people tell others about books they’ve enjoyed. I have a free mini-guide that goes with my nonfiction. You can get it when you sign up on my website. When you see how easy it is to use, you can form a group with your friends and go through the book together.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
There are a lot of ways to write a book. The main ingredient for success is determination. Write with your heart and unlock that special quality that is in you alone.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
“It’s hard to beat a person who never gives up.” This is a Babe Ruth quote that keeps me going.
What are you reading now?
The Bible. I try to read it daily and post a few verses on my Twitter account several times each month. It helps me readjust my attitudes so I don’t get too far off my path.
What’s next for you as a writer?
I’m always learning. Between learning new ways to connect with readers, I’m trying to spend a little time putting together the workbook version of Heroine: Rising to the Challenge. It will have Q&A, quotes, daily goals, and coloring pages too!
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?
The Bible, Pride and Prejudice, and my coloring book with the gigantic pages so I’ll have some shade from the sun.
