I dream big. I always have and I always will. I like to think that my belief in God is the reason why I am inspired. I think there is so much more out there that we have not seen that anything is possible, so why not write about it?

Currently I am in the middle of Demoweir's Rise, which is book two of the Great War Chronicles. After I finished Dwarf and if was published, I noticed quite a few errors in the book (mainly over usage of comma's) and thus I am running this book through an editor, a software editor, and then reading it again before I publish it! After that, I have Red Snow, Grandma Grace, and Hound of Justice to finish!

Write - Write- Write- and did I mention write? Seriously, just start writing. There are great writers and there are great storytellers. Find out which one you are. I have found that I am more of a storyteller than a writer, which is why my books tend to unfold as if you were watching a movie. Every step has a purpose, a path, and an ending. Find your path and start discovering things along the journey!

I can say and do whatever I want in my books and there is not a person alive that can stop me. Since I started writing, my entire family have suddenly began to realize just how much I love to be a storyteller. It is quite amazing to see their faces when I tell them I am writing another book, etc.

I do not really believe in writer's block per se. I think that some days you are just more focused and ready for the task at hand. On those days, I do as much as I can!

Boredom. I love fantasy books and I am a musician as well as a poet. Since I couldn't find anyone to play the music I wanted to play, I decided to put the characters from my music into a novel, and there ya go!
