Welcome. Tell us about you and your books.
Do you plot
or let the story unfold as you write?
I try to plot at least the major
components of the story before writing.
It makes the writing go faster.
How did you
do in English as a kid?
I did well in English. I actually liked diagramming sentences, and
liked literature (well, most of it.
There were a few books I disliked).
When did you
decide to become an author?
When I got hooked at age 9 on the
Nancy Drew series, I wanted to writ my own.
I decided to be an author then!
Do you have
trouble saying goodbye to characters?
Sometimes. I often write epilogues for them because of
that.
Do you have
set times during the day that you write?
I go to my “real job” (real estate)
often in the morning. Then I come home,
take the dog for a long walk, and spend the afternoons writing. Although sometimes it’s the reverse order.
and for a little fun...
Do you have
a favorite quote?
“Never give up. Never surrender.” From the movie Galaxy Quest. I had this quote on my bulletin board for
years!
What is your
favorite drink?
Amaretto! I treat myself to a glass every Friday night.
Has the dog
ever eaten your manuscript?
No, but our current dog chewed the
TV remote and I had to get a new one!
Do you have
any hobbies?
I collect old girls’ series books
like Nancy Drew, Judy Bolton, and Dana Girls.
What is your
favorite time of year and why?
Autumn. I love the cooler temperatures and the
gorgeous colors.

Hi Roni: Nice learning more about your. I have several "girl" books too. Even the Nancy Drew cookbook! Loved reading her as a child as well. Wishing you great success with your Deerbourne Inn story
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your interview.
ReplyDeleteI loved your quote! Galaxy Quest is one of my favorite movies.
I loved the Nancy Drew books and the Hardy Boys books, too. My mother introduced them to me. Then, of course, I loved the TV series. Parker Stevenson and Shaun Cassidy's pictures were on my wall.
Wishing the best success with your book.
Thanks for the insights, Roni. I'm having a good time celebrating Christmas in July today on Twitter with Eight Nights To Win Her Heart. Thanks for such a great story. Good luck with this one.
