Is There a Message in Your Novel That You
Want Readers to Grasp?
Whatever struggles you face, there is a
way to persevere. You don’t have to go it alone. Let your family and friends
help you along the way.
Is there anything you find particularly
challenging in your writing?
Finding the time to write is my main
challenge.
How many books have you written and which
is your favorite?
I’ve completed two, and I’m working on
Book Three in the series. I love both of them for different reasons. The
Haunting on Palm Court was my first, and the second book, Return to Palm Court,
is more polished. It shows me how far I’ve come in a short time. I look forward
to continuing to learn and improve.
If You had the chance to cast your main
character from Hollywood today, who would you pick and why?
Mackenzie Rosman, who was Ruthie in “7th
Heaven” would play Brittany. I happened to see a photo of her recently, and she
definitely has the right look.
When did you begin writing?
When I was 13, I landed my first newspaper
column. I’ve been writing professionally ever since.
How long did it take to complete your
first book?
I wrote the first draft in five months,
and it took me another year to polish and edit what I’d written.
Did you have an author who inspired you to
become a writer?
The late Dorothea Benton Frank - I fell in
love with her Lowcountry descriptions. I knew I needed to try my hand at
writing novels.
What is your favorite part of the writing
process?
When an idea spurs another idea. I love
the adrenaline rush when I’m on a roll.
