Excerpt from The 3rd novel of The Land of the Four Series.
1) What inspired you to write?
I’m inspired by a lot of things, and each of my books are different. Dylan for instance was
inspired by the wonderful people I met while driving an ACCESS bus (transportation for the
developmentally impaired). Cho Nisi was inspired by a human predicament…my own…having
made errors in my life, not because I’m bad but because I’m human and I wanted to show the
journey one young woman takes to redeem herself and fight for her goals. Ian’s Realm was
inspired by my grandsons who were raised without fathers…that they could be the man they
wished their father had been for them…so I told of Ian and his struggles to fight that dragon
that kept him down.
Darkness Holds the Son is inspired by today’s society and the need for parents to keep
fighting to protect their children regardless of the influences in this world that would steal their
children’s minds and bodies. Inspiration is everywhere.
2) Are you a reader? What are some of your favorites?
Yes, I love to read. I’ve loved books by Joe Abercrombie (The Shattered Seas series), by
Brandon Sanderson (Mistborn), some of the classics like Pride and Prejudice, Through the
Looking Glass, there are so many I couldn’t name them all. I love immersing myself in a good
book.
3) What is your newest work, and what is going to happen in the future?
Darkness Holds the Son is my newest, just released April 14 th . I have plans to release another
spin-off novel to the Sword of Cho Nisi series, and I’m playing around with maybe doing some
Vella stories that spin off from that saga as well.
4) Do you have advice or tips for Indie Authors?
Keep studying, reading, and honing your craft. Most importantly write what you love, the
passion is catching.
5) What influenced you as a writer?
Authors like Robert Jordan, J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, and Lewis Carroll have influenced my
writing, but there have been literary works I read even as a youngster that have influenced
me. Shakespeare, Poe, Mark Twain. I just wish I had started novel writing earlier!

1) What inspired you to write?
I was inspired to write by my own love of stories! I have always wanted to dive into writing, but it wasn’t until I got back into reading that I decided I was ready to put the pen to paper. When I first started I didn’t think I would ever finish a whole book, but here I am nine months later with six completed drafts!
2) Are you a reader? What are some of your favorites?
I’m mostly an audiobook listener, but I really love any type of fantasy romance, especially retold fairy tales! Anything by Kenley Davidson, Melanie Cellier, or Camille Peters are usually my favorites!
3) What is your newest work, and what is going to happen in the future?
I just recently released my third book, Framed in Florals: A Retelling of Cinderella! This is book three out of a series of five, and as of today I have completed the edits for book four and book five is going through a round of beta readers! I am already working on both my second and third series, so there’s lots more books on the way!
4) Do you have advice or tips for Indie Authors?
Don’t compare your victories to anyone else! Every milestone should be celebrated and you should take great pride in even the first strides.
5) What influenced you as a writer?
Definitely my job! I’m a nanny, so I take a lot of inspiration from the incredible imagination of the children of the kiddos I watch. I also write fairy tale retellings, so a lot of their children’s books give me ideas for fresh stories!Â

Being an indie author I love being a storyteller.
