I answered some fantastic questions in connection with my second novel, THE FAMILY TABOR, about writing, titles, naming characters, if my teenager reader self would be surprised by my novels, if I find it harder to write beginnings or endings, if I see myself in my characters, and what non-literary inspirations influence me.

As the Tabor family comes together to celebrate, each sibling arrives with secrets and personas to protect from the eyes of the others.
