GUEST POST
Can you, for those who don't know you already, tell something about yourself and how you became an author?

I am a proud mother of 5 and grandmother of 4 and I own a marketing company which I have run for over 10 years.

My journey as an author started with a dream I had about a dress. I was unable to draw the image, so I decided to write out the description. Once I had written every detail about the dress, I had to write about the woman wearing it, then the room she was in, and why she was there. This led to other characters and eventually a story.

What is something unique/quirky about you?

I have a stuffed teddy bear that I occasionally sleep with when one of my grandchildren aren’t with me.

I have a love affair with my coffee pot, it makes my absolute favorite thing in the entire world… coffee! When my previous coffee maker died, I actually cried and held a small memorial service for it before embracing my new one which sparked a new beginning.

Tell us something really interesting that's happened to you!

Becoming a mother and grandmother are probably the two most precious moments in my life. I have also obtained my B.S.A.I.T. and will have my M.B.A. in June. Last September my business manager, Cindy, and I got to meet for the first time after knowing one another for over a decade. That experience will probably last me a lifetime.

What are some of your pet peeves?

Pet peeves? Moving my stuff around on my desk is probably my biggest. I tend to place things and not really look where I laid them, it’s just always in the same place. However, when I go to pick the item back up and it’s no longer there. I end up searching a long time for it, which frustrates me completely. I also do not like doing only half a job. If I agree to do something, I want to make sure it is done right and thoroughly.

Where were you born/grew up at?

We moved around a lot while I was growing up but all of it was in the Southern States.

If you knew you'd die tomorrow, how would you spend your last day?

I would spend the day with my children, grandchildren, family and friends. I would want them to know how much they matter to me and that I love them with all that I am. I would not want any place special just create a memory with them that would last their lifetime.

Who is your hero and why?

I have had a lot of heroes in my life, my dad and mom (stepmother) are the two biggest. My dad loved my mom with all that he was and while she fought cancer, he was always her rock. My mom is a hero because no matter how hard it got, she was always smiling and grateful for the life she had. We know that she had a hard time, but she would never admit it.

What kind of world ruler would you be?

I don’t think that I would qualify for such a position, but if I had to give an answer, I would hope to be a fair and honest one. I would want to see everyone equally, find a way to stop bullying and promote ways for people to communicate with one another. My answer might seem a little naive but someone that cares for others first should be the one to wield that kind of power.

What are you passionate about these days?

It has only been the last couple of years that I took writing back up, so getting back in touch with that part of me is something I am passionate about. My family and friends are always something that motivates me. My clients and company are a daily passion that I hope to always do well at.

What do you do to unwind and relax?

I enjoy puzzle games, music and taking walks to unwind. Anything that helps me to totally disconnect from technology.

How to find time to write as a parent?

I could say it’s easier since all my children are grown but there are still times that they just want Mom’s attention. Then there are the grandbabies as well. My family will always come first so writing takes place when the day’s work is done and everyone is off doing their own thing.

Describe yourself in 5 words or less!

Despite everything, I still believe.

When did you first consider yourself a writer?

Funny enough it was not until I got the first copy of La Roe’s in my hand and saw my name on it.

Do you have a favorite movie?

Return of the Jedi, it was one of the first movies I saw in the theater.

Which of your novels can you imagine made into a movie?

I was once told that La Roe’s reminded them of a movie being played out in the first chapter, so I would say that one.

What literary pilgrimages have you gone on?

Just going for a walk is sometimes the furthest I go.

As a writer, what would you choose as your mascot/avatar/spirit animal?

Definitely a panther. I love the sleek way they move, the fierceness of them, their overwhelming presence and how they are nurturing even if it cost them everything.
