What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Living in a Lie… It is the second book in my Family Tree Series that follows the life of a Baptist minister’s wife of 17-years who leaves her marriage with her 5-kids. Each book is a suspenseful mystery where Sara Blake must overcome an unfair divorce, wrongful distribution of marital assets, insurance fraud, murder, arson, hidden marital wealth, lying and deceit, investment fraud, drugs, sexual perversions, kidnapping and a religious exorcist; just to reveal some her struggles.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Kimberly Heimbuch … Coronado, CA, Musing with Crayolakym… Book Reviews and Promotional Services
“I immediately noticed you have a distinctive writing style. It reminds me of the Perry Mason TV series writing, but you add an enticing story element creating this official report style verbiage that sounds very formal as if over my shoulder you are reading me legal transcripts and reports while at the same time the story itself is playing out before my eyes.”
“At first, I was unsure about how I felt about the flow, but after a few chapters, that is when I developed the feeling of someone standing behind me reading. Very Dick Tracy like. It definitely sets you aside as a unique writer.”
“I would recommend your books if they are just as good, including cover, story and the same writing style. This series would be one that I would heavily back.”
