Clean believe it or not.It takes my mind off writing which frees up my mind to work through the block. Then out of nowhere my mind begins to pick up where it left off in my writing.

Creating an incredible story and being able to share it with the rest of the world.

That's simple. Two things: never give up and never stop writing.

I am working on two projects. The first is book 2 in my new paranormal romance series (the first book is Deadly Curses). The other is a paranormal romance novella about a woman who encounters a ghost stuck in the home she recently purchased. The ghost had been cursed by a witch over 300 years ago. As Holly heals from recent losses, she helps the ghost track down the witch to attempt to lift the curse so the ghost can finally rejoin her husband on the other side.

From my sixth grade English teacher. He had assigned us to write a short story. Once I started, I found a new love for creating my own little worlds.

I was reading a spoof article on children disappearing and their bones being used for Voodoo practices. I definitely had no desire to write about kids being kidnapped and killed for their bones. So I just focused on human bones and Voodoo playing the what if game. What if a mother lost her child in a tragic accident yet blamed the driver anyway? What if the DA and the judge decided not to throw the book at the driver? And what if she even blamed the doctor for not saving the child? And what if she practiced Voodoo? What if all four men are cursed to suffer and die? Deadly Curses was born.
