I always write with the assumption that no one is going to read what I write except for maybe my mom. :) This takes the pressure off and allows me to just WRITE. As with so many things in life, the hardest part is definitely getting started. An author once told me to just write, even if it's crap. 10 pages of crap is better than not starting at all.

The Next Chapter: Time for a Book Tour

It’s hard to believe, but the launch date for my new historical fiction novel, Rhodelia, is almost here! The book has been available for pre-order for a few weeks, but the official launch date is this Thursday, October 1st. It’s so exciting to finally introduce readers to these characters who’ve existed only in my mind for so long. That’s the magic of writing!
