This is an Art AND Author website,
so I am obligated to ask:
Favorite work of art or sculpture.
I don’t have one.
How old were you when you started writing?
I wrote my first “book” when I was 8. I have kept a journal
since I was eleven years old.
Do you plan out your book with outlines and notecards? Or just write?
I don’t plan my work with outlines and I just go with the flow.
Describe your perfect evening.
An Iced coffee on an enclosed porch overlooking water. I have my laptop and a notebook in hand to jot down notes.
Where do you get your inspiration?
From my daily life and coffee shops.
What do you do when you get a writer's block?
I go to a coffee shop, there is always something interesting.
Who is your favorite author?
Stephen King & L.M. Montgomery & J.K. Rowling. It is a tie. I can’t just pick one.
Best book you ever read.
The book “It” by Stephen King
Last book you read.
“Run For Your Life” by C.M. Sutter
I recently read that one, too! Good book.
What would you do for a living if you weren’t a writer?
Work with people who struggle with mental health/addiction challenges.
Who is the one person who has influenced your personal life the most and why?
My best friend, who is in her 70’s. She used to be a typesetter and is a writer. She has challenged me in so many good ways. I wouldn’t be where I am today with my writing career if she hadn’t given me the encouragement and confidence to keep moving forward.
If you could sit down and have a conversation with ONE person, living or dead, real or fictional, who would it be and why?
Stephen King because I love his work and his work is so unique.
What advice would you give someone who aspired to be a writer?
Never give up, no matter what anyone says. You can’t make your writing dreams come true if you don’t write.
