Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
The name of my latest book is “Strengthened Through the Storm”. This book was inspired by a series of life-altering events that caused me to fall into a deep depression. I did not know if I could pull myself out of that depression and felt lost and alone. It was not me, but God who saw fit to pick me up. I have shared my story since that day in the hopes that I could help and support others that find themselves in the same state.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
No
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Joel Osteen, Tony Evans, and Joyce Meyers, with a twist of Allison Brennan and John Grisham.
What are you working on now?
I am working on my second book, “40 Days to Freedom”. Life-changing events can take place in as little as 40 days if we are focused on and relying on God. Many times we feel that our efforts are the determining factor in the things that happen in our lives, but God is the one that is in control of our lives. The ability to focus on God and remove those things in our lives that distract us and keep us from hearing His voice is crucial to spiritual growth. 40 Days to Freedom is a reflective journal that walks with the reader through 40 days and supports their spiritual growth along the way.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Social media, word of mouth, and book reviews are my method for book promotion. I am still very new at being an author, but I am learning and researching new avenues of promotion each day.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
The advice that I have is for authors to not be discouraged, especially in those times when they have writers block. You were not given the idea and desire to right a book for no reason. Stay patient and calm, mediate on your goals and speak life into your manuscript. It will come to fruition.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Live for today, because tomorrow is not promised to any of us.
What are you reading now?
Joyce Meyers, Battlefield of the Mind
What’s next for you as a writer?
I am in the process of writing my next book. I hope to have it completed by the end of the year.
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?
Bible, John Grisham-Rainmaker, Priscilla Shrier-Life Interrupted, and Lysa Terkeurst-Forgiving What you Can’t Forget
