Thanks for the question. Well, I had been an actress for a lot of years. In acting, you're always the last piece of the puzzle in terms of the process of getting a project made. You don't really have any input in the creative process. (I had a yoga teacher years ago who called it a "table scraps" career, as in you're always waiting for someone else to throw you some scraps.) When I left acting to pursue other things I decided I wanted to do something where the creative process was up to me. I had a number of story ideas, so I started putting pen to paper (or, rather, fingers to keyboard). I loved the process of world-building. First, I started writing spec scripts, but as soon as I started writing a novel, I LOVED that process. With scripts, you're working in a very strict format/length/etc. But with books, you can do anything you want. It's up to you. I fell in love with that. (less)

I'm an Earphones Award Winner!

Well, this is pretty thrilling. I just received an email from AudioFile Magazine (the #1 source globally for audiobook reviews and recommendations). They just told me they reviewed my recently released audiobook of The Key to Circus-Mom Highway.

That was exciting in itself because only a small percentage of audiobooks submitted are chosen for review. When I went to the review page, I found that no Read more of this blog post »
