I'd go to Fairy Falls. It's the fictional tourist town I created for Mysterious Tales from Fairy Falls teen psychic mystery series. I really miss living in cottage country at times. So I'd love to revisit all those happy memories, and perhaps relax on the dock with a dram of scotch. Cheers!

Sorry, Allen, just getting this! Thank you for showing interest in my series! I really appreciate it! So far, I haven't been approached, but you never know what the Universe has planned. I'm definitely interested in seeing this time travel series be translated into film! Winks at the Disney Studios...

So many books, so little time! LOL! Okay, I want to dive into 'Enthusiasm Makes the Difference' by Norman Vincent Peal, 'Uncharted' by Justine Alley Dowsett and Murandy Damodred, and 'The Secret in Mossy Swamp' by Rita Monette. There's more of course, but I don't try to overwhelm myself, especially if I need time to do research for the next installment of The Last Timekeepers!

The mystery on how to get more book sales! LOL! Seriously, perhaps figuring out how I can communicate with my dog to find out what's going on with his health and what he needs now. I actually have a book coming out this summer (July 17th) about a teen girl who has the gift to talk to animals called Lost and Found. It's part of a teen psychic mystery series I've developed and takes place in a small, tourist town called Fairy Falls! Should be fun!

Easy! Claire Randall and Jamie Fraser from the Outlander series. Love the chemistry between them, even when things go south, they work it out and stay together!

Never stop investing in yourself. Invest in the best. That’s in yourself, and in your readers. Your readers deserve the best of what you have to offer them. Surround yourself with the best possible team. Never stop learning. As you grow, so will your readers, so be prepared for this. Oh yeah, and never give up. That’s a given and should be part of any author’s credo.

Get out of my writing studio. Take the dog for a walk. Do something that will focus my mind elsewhere. Then, when I least expect it the answer to blow through the blockage comes to me. I also find if I help fellow authors solve their problems, that's when the writing flow starts again.

So far, I have two novels out in ebook format—the first book, The Last Timekeepers and the Arch of Atlantis, and the prequel of the series, Legend of the Timekeepers. I also have the second book in the series completed tentatively called, The Last Timekeepers and the Dark Secret, but there’s the fun job of reworking it into another character’s point-of-view. I’ve planned for a total of ten books, plus the prequel for the whole series. I have also signed on with literary agency, Walden House (Books & Stuff) in December 2012 to represent another young adult series I’ve created about teens with psychic abilities entitled, Mysterious Tales from Fairy Falls.

Both the idea and inspiration for The Last Timekeepers series came to me through a dream I had around 1998. In this dream, I saw seven arches, and there were seven people (five kids, two adults) with crystals in their hands, walking up to these arches. It definitely had an “Indiana Jones” feel to it. At that time, I was writing a paranormal romance (before there was a distinct genre) and had no intention of writing a middle-grade/young adult book like The Last Timekeepers. But this idea kept growing in my mind, and wouldn’t leave, like some mystical force pushing you from behind. So, I thought I’d challenge myself and write a novel—a series—that would appeal to my son, who at the time was the target age of my audience. I’ve always loved the time travel genre, so I imagined the arches I saw vividly in my dream as time portals. It was a no-brainer for me.
