All different kinds, to fit all different scenes in the book. I strive to make each of my books better than the last.ĭo you have any “must haves” with you while you’re writing? I “must have” instrumental music. I can’t think of a single aspect that I wouldn’t want to impove What aspect of writing would you most like to improve on? Your least favorite? Editing… I am forever missing something important and marketing isn’t too high on my list either… What is your favorite aspect of writing? Allowing my imagination to invent… I love coming up with all of the intricacies and the twists and turns of the plot. But then, after finding out my youngest child was dyslexic, I decided to put the writing on hold so that I could homeschool her instead of placing her in special ed (the school district’s answer to the problem… yeah, no thanks.) Then once she started college, (she’s brilliant, by the way), my husband nudged me back into writing. I did have a few “positive” rejections that praised and encouraged.
I began writing books years ago without much success. I have three, beautiful, unparalelled bundles of joy that bring an abundance of laughter and sunshine into my life…need I say more?ĭid anyone in your life influence you or encouraged you to be a writer? (teacher, family member, friend) My main supporter and personal cheering squad is my husband. The birth of each is recorded as a “happiest moment” in Of course, nothing compares to meeting the love of my life, getting married and together raising five exceptional kids. Covering all of those would be a book in intself. I had a wonderful childhood filled with unique adventures many kids don’t ever get to have.
And, of course, I am grateful for the opportunity to write the stories bouncing around inside my head and seeing them published.Īt what age were you the happiest? What triggered such joy? I have had “happiest moments” at every stage of my life. I am also very grateful for those who defend it.
I am grateful for this beautiful nation in which I live and for the freedoms we enjoy. If you could go back in time to when you were seven years old, what wisdom or advice would you pass on to yourself? Get over the shyness already…įor what are you grateful? Have a seat, it’s a long list!įirst and foremost, I am grateful for my family, for their unconditional love and support. What’s your favorite thing to do to relax? Pull up a rocking chair under the shade of our big, old tree, look out at the pastures filled with horses, and visit with family and friends.
