Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I was born and raised in southern Ontario. I now live in Northern Ontario Canada and I am married to my best friend and soul mate, we have two dogs.
An avid reader all my life, I dreamt of becoming an author. I decided to give writing a try after one of my favorite authors launched a course on how to write your novel. This course gave me the push I needed to put pen to paper and my debut novel “It Was Always You” was born.
When I’m not writing or plotting my next novel I can be found curled up with a cup of coffee, blanket and the newest romance novel from one of my favorite authors.
In my spare time, I enjoy camping, hiking, sunny destinations, spending quality time with family and friends and of course reading.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
The name of my latest book is It Was Always You. It was just a story that I have held onto for years.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I always have to have a cup of coffee by my side.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
The book that influenced me the most was Excuses Be Gone by Wayne Dyer.
What are you working on now?
Currently, I am working on two books, A Kiss Beneath the Stars and a Christmas Romance.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I’m in the beginning stages so I am just learning what works, I am basically trying a little bit of everything.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Follow your dreams and keep your head up. It takes time and hard work to get your name out there, do not get discouraged!
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
I wouldn’t call it advice, but a favorite quote of mine is:
But what if I fall? Oh my darling, but what if you fly.
What are you reading now?
She Asked for It by Willow Winters
What’s next for you as a writer?
Well, my next release will be out in August. I am really excited for my readers to read this story. It is funny but emotionally charged. Then, of course, my November release.
