Hi R and thank you! I'm planning to publish a book of poetry, but I've been caught up in my novels, so it's still on my to do list. I'll certainly try Milne...

I am working on something that will be somewhat different from my previous book, but I will stay true to what I like in romance and all those elements will be present. The heroine in this new book might be a little softer, the hero a little bit harder, no pun intended, but as always in my books, the story is going to be about book people, book lovers and bookworms.

Writing can be hard. What comes after is harder. You feel like you're completely bared to the world. But one happy reader makes it all worthwhile and brightens your day. So brace yourself, be proud and stay happy!

I think that one day I just really, really wished to be on a tropical island. And I have never been to one. And I could see those two characters: a little bit haughty, a little bit socially awkward, romance novel author with a writer's block - the heroine Jessica; and Mike - the hero to root for, who actually looks as if he stepped from the cover of one of her novels. He is charming, sexy, roguish and a bit of a mystery. An alpha male and a gentleman.

Except for the writing part, the best thing about being a writer is when someone reads your book and likes it. There's nothing better than seeing a good review.

Usually, ideas just pop in my head. Sometimes, I have a strange and interesting dream, and then a book is born. Writing is the harder part. Getting an idea is like starting your own business, new and wonderful, while writing are the actual working hours.

I stop writing. I watch a movie. I play a board game for hours. I go to sleep. Then I come back. I write a poem. Or two poems. Or an essay about existentialism. I keep writing until I'm mentally in my novel again.

I would go to the book world of Jane Austen. I would put on a bonnet, a nice, muslin gown and be a perfect wallflower.
