What inspires you to write?
The events everyday people experience that may have negatively effected their life in some way. I write because I want to help those who are and/or have been in serious situations that need recovery but don’t know where to begin.
Tell us about your writing process.
I first draft most of what I am going to write on my iPad, then I type the project on my Mac. The software I use is OpenOffice and Scrivener.
How did you decide how to publish your books?
I would highly advise small authors to start off self-publishing, as this is what I do. What you can do to grow unit sales is listing your book on book directories.
