Jamie and Claire from the Outlander series. For anyone who's read and loved the series the answer is obvious. For anyone who hasn't read the series, I love them because they aren't perfect. Their love story spans decades, and time travel. It is deep and complex. There is humor and heart break. The feels stay with you long after the book is done.

Hey McCandless, fancy seeing you here! This one's easy. Ashra from my YA fantasy The Sound of the Stones is my favorite character. And yes, book two and three will finish out the saga between Frankie and Ashra. All will be revealed! Much sarcastic silliness still to follow.

Thank you for stopping by Stephanie. I would say my biggest obstacle for writing time is myself. I often get side tracked by squirrels, shiny objects, and cookies. Once I defeat those foes I will be prolific times ten.

Oh, that's a great question Christopher! Writing children's picture books comes easily to me, but the illustrations take hours upon hours to get right. Not only that, but formatting a children's book with illustrations is challenging to say the least. So I would say Children's picture books for that simple fact alone.

Years ago I had a seed of an idea to write a story about the world before Pangea split into separate continents. I also wanted to bridge time from present to past where lives intertwine over millennium. 'The Sound of the Stones' is the result of that seed.

An unseen force wells up within me begging to come out. How else do I explain the crazy in my head?

Read, write, and then read some more!

Creating strange new places. Seeing characters come to life.

I don't. When I am uninspired to write, I simply do not write. Sometimes that leaves long stretches with nothing to show. But when I do feel inspired, I write for days on end.
