With overworked body and soul, I embarked on the elevator ride to the lobby of my historic office building at the end of a long Friday, only to have the ancient car jerk to a halt between floors and my frantic push on the emergency help button go unanswered. Glancing at my mobile to confirm it was dead, I caught the reflection in its screen of something long and slender dangling from the elevator ceiling, and my mind flashed to...snakes on a plane...but it's snake on the elevator...and I'm trapped.

I am fortunate that I never experience writer's block but I do experience writer's procrastination (just one more bit of research, just that one Facebook post to answer, just one more page in the book I'm reading...oh, day is done and I've written how many words? Zero!?!?!

Typing THE END - seriously, the feeling of accomplishment when you tie up the loose ends and have a story told from beginning to middle to end is unbelievable, even if it means you have to now revise, revise, revise to make it be all it can be.

WRITE! Don't listen to anyone else's voice but your own and write your passion.

My work-in-progress is another sweet contemporary romance in which two hearts re-connect for a second chance when circumstances bring the former high school sweethearts back to their quaint and cozy hometown in the Georgia mountains, tentatively titled FIRST AND ALWAYS LOVE.

Reading other wonderful books inspires me to continue writing, and the characters in my head also keep me at it with their clamoring to get on with their story!

My idea for A TRYST IN PARIS came from a vintage photo from the 1900 Paris Exhibition of a woman falling from the Exhibition's moving sidewalk. That photo prompted me to view silent movies on youtube from the Exhibition which spawned my idea of a time travel romance in which my contemporary protagonist Mirabelle ends up arriving in 1900 Paris on that sidewalk, where she meets a young girl Bernadette who draws Mirabelle into a Parisian adventure with her roguishly handsome guardian Jacques.
