What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Brave the Beaver Has the Worry Warts is my newest release. It was inspired by a series of anxiety attacks my daughter was going through. I wanted to write something to help children understand anxiety and how to deal with it.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I love Max Lucado, Audrey Wood, and so many others.
What are you working on now?
I’m working on the third book in my With Love Series called Grandmas Are for Love. The bond grandkids have with their grandmothers is so special. My mom was an amazing grandmother and I dedicate it to her memory.
Do you have any advice for new authors?

What’s next for you as a writer?
