Where were you born and where do you call home? - I was born and raised and currently reside in New Orleans,LA. Dorothy said it best there is no place like it.
What is the name of your most recent book and if you had to sum it up in 30 or less words, what would you say?-It will chronicle the life of Kendra Foster and her journey of growing up. You will take the journey of the joys, pains, ups and downs. Family, school, friend’s boys and everything in between.
Do you have plans for a new book? Is this book part of a series?-I am currently working on A New Beginning. the second book in the Growing Pains series.
What or who inspired you to write? And how long have you been writing?-I have always been "good" at writing. A's on English papers loved essay tests above anything else when I was in school.
I talked about writing a book for forever. Life happened some major personal challenges and I just decided to stop talking about it and DO IT.
Would you like to giveaway a copy of your book on this blog?-SURE
How did you come up with the title and cover design?-Growing up is painful so the title of Growing Pains speaks for itself.
I wanted a girl average girl that everyone person growing up could relate to and her expression told the story before you open the book. I also wanted my all grown up readers (like myself) and think I used to look like that!!
Have you based any of your characters on someone you know, or real events in your own life?- 30% of my book is based on events in my life or the lives of people close to me. The other 70% is my imagination.
Do you prefer ebooks, paperbacks or hardcover?-I am dating myself but looong before the e-reader times it was paperback. I love to read at night. I put my book under my pillow and start again when I get up. Hardback always a little too uncomfortable.
About a month ago I was sold out to the paper and vowed to be loyal to the paper (which I am). But I downloaded my first book on Kindle and it is giving paperback a run for its money.
Don't think I love paperbacks more at this point just longer.
