I would have to say Graedia. Graedia is one of the worlds in my books that I created. It has dragons, Camelot themes and the beginnings of the new wizard generation. It is a WIP at the moment, but will soon be finished and published. I am so excited to soon share with my fans, my new book, NETHERFALLS.

Actually it is no longer a plot. It has become a series. How can one person change another so much? How can a walk off of your destined path send your life flying in the completely wrong direction? How does someone just disappear without a trace? Read By Morning's Light, Across the Fields, Years of Summer: Lily's Story, and then Beyond the Gate. There is always that one person that comes into your life and then one day they are just gone. It is not until then that you realize how much that one person affected you.
It was an incredibly strange happening. They were there and then they just disappeared. The books above tell the story and my theory of what might have happened. Enjoy!

Katniss and Peta from Hunger games. They come through so much to end up together. If any couple could survive all of what they did and still stay together, that is true love

The most recently published book--Criminal Intent--came from a conversation with a friend.
The book I'm working on now--How Far the Sun--came from one of those little quizzes they have on Facebook. It was called What would your summer name be. After taking the quiz it gave me the summer name of Solstice and that alone gave me the idea for the WIP.

Many things inspire me to write. It could be a song, a word, a name, or a dream. It could even be a photo or painting.

My current WIP (work in progress) is titled, How Far the Sun. It is a new and different magical fantasy. A YA novel. I'm hoping to have it out some time next year.

My advice would be--just start. Don't be afraid of what others may think, write for you. Write what you want. Write what you like. Don't try to be every other author. You have your own ideas and you may be the next J.K. Rowling or James Patterson. JUST START!

The best thing about being a writer is I can write whatever I want to write. Wherever my imagination carries me, I don't have to stop it and say, 'I never will get there,' because I always will.

Most of the time I pull out my iPod and listen to the soundtrack I have created for the particular book I am working on.That usually re-triggers my mind and gets me back in the book.
