Write a lot. Write stories and journals and essays. Also read a lot. Reading is enjoyable, and you soak up so much about grammar, punctuation, spelling, and sentence structure. It's especially important to read in the genre you'd like to write.

I enjoyed writing UNDER THE ALMOND TREES so much, that I'm now working on ALOHA SPIRIT. This one is about my husband's grandmother. She grew up in territorial Hawaii, coming to the mainland after Pearl Harbor was bombed. I'm enjoying writing historical fiction, and currently examining more women in my family tree that I'd like to write about!

My most recent book is UNDER THE ALMOND TREES. It is based on stories my aunt told me about the women in my family. I heard these stories my entire life, and they fueled my passion for history and tradition. They aren't women whose names are familiar, but their stories are interesting and needed to be shared.
