Now for my interview with her:
What is your favorite book?
Most recently - Damage by Josephine Hart.
Magnificent.
How old were you the first time you wrote a story?
5th grade.
What do you like most about being a writer?
Sharing what's in my head and
heart with readers.
Do you know anyone who is autistic?
My daughter. Heavenly is the story of
our family learning to cope, accept and live with autism and the effects on each
family member.
What do you like about angels? and what compelled you to write about them?
My beliefs about angels are pretty straight forwardly portrayed in HEAVENLY:
that they exist to help us and they are about doing good. My daughter with
autism ( on whom the character Abria is based ) has had so many close calls I
can only attribute her safety to the fact that there are people watching over
her that love her. People other than us!
What is the best Halloween costume you have ever seen?
So many! I can't
pick one, but my favorite of MINE was Smoky the Bear when I was 9 years
old.
If you could be anything supernatural what would it be?
If you could be anything supernatural what would it be?

traveler.
