The mystery of why my grandfather’s record of service in Italy was wiped when he migrated to the States. He was a Carabinieri in the Italian Police, posted to the American Consulate in Rome, but I can’t find any records of him… was it purposeful, or poor record keeping in the 1920s, or was it something that happened when Italy was part of the axis of evil during WW2? Lots of plot bunnies there, eh?

Writers block is awful. It's like having your fingers caught in one of those Chinese finger traps, and the more you struggle, the tighter it becomes. You need to relax, so I focus on other things...my family, my friends, watching my favorite movies, food, and of course, I read. After a while everything just clicks back into place and things start flowing again.

Hearing that you've given someone a little enjoyment, that your characters and their stories mean something to them as a reader. Every author needs to grow a thick skin, but it's the positives you hear that keep you going...

Storytelling is like breathing. It's something I need to do to live, even if I didn't publish. The characters are alive and living in my head, and my books are the way I share their lives and loves with the world.

Read...read...and then read some more. Especially while you're writing. You need to keep your imagination fed and sharp. Write everyday, even if it's only a paragraph or two. Creativity needs to flow or else it stagnates.

Time Turner is my most recent book, released the first week of December 2014! It is book two in The Legend Series and the idea came from continuing the story and the characters from book one, Hollow's End. Inspiration for the story comes from the legend, folklore and history of the Hudson Valley of New York where I live. Hollow's End is a twist on the Legend of Sleepy Hollow based on historic fact from the famous village and TIME TURNER takes our heroine back in time to 1780 and thrusts her into the thick of the events surrounding the most infamous people in American Revolutionary History...Benedict Arnold!
