Q&A With The Author:
When
did you start writing, and was there a specific event or person who influenced
you to become an author?
I've
been an avid reader since I was quite young and have always entertained myself
making up my own stories. I decided to give writing a full-length novel in a
personal NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) in January of 2010,
just to see if I could. I wrote 80,000 words that month and have been hooked
ever since.
Are you currently working on a project, and if so, can you tell us anything
about it?
I'm
working on a Victorian Time Travel story, Against the Magic,
with three other authors. We went to England in the spring for research. It was
so much fun!
What is your favorite writing snack?
Light
cheesesticks and Cherry Coke Zero.
If you could have dinner with any of your characters, which ones would you
choose? Why? What food would you serve?
I'd
go to a family reunion at Randolph Ranch in Montana (from my Safe Harbors
series) when their American Samoa rescuers join the family and
friends. With the large front lawn with great shade trees, Jack
Randolphs smoker barbeque, horses to ride, and the comfortable camaraderie
of people who really like each other, I would be one happy girl.
Did you learn anything from writing your book and what was it?
I
did some research on Williamsburg for A Savage Ghost and would love to
visit that historic venue someday.
How do you relax, or what do you enjoy doing when you are not writing?
I'm
an online gamer, and my favorite game right now is League of Legends. I use it
as the "carrot" (reward) for when I accomplish certain tasks, writing
related. I also play while I walk on the treadmill. Fastest 30-45 minutes ever!
What is your largest unfulfilled dream, and what are you doing to reach it?
I'm
a Navy brat and spend a lot of my youth growing up in Asia. I would love to
travel to some of the countries I visited to see how much they've changed.
South Korea, for example, is incredibly sophisticated and technologically
advanced now.
What do you fear most?
Losing
loved ones. My mother died when I was fourteen, and I was widowed at
twenty-six. I have a belief in an afterlife, so I don't fear for them being
wiped from existence, but I know from sad experience how hard it is to be left
behind.
What advice would you give someone who wants to write a book some day?
Just
do it! Consider signing up for NaNoWriMo this November and just see if they can
do.
