Tell us about your writing process.
I still write with old fashioned pen and paper. Then I transfer it to the computer. I use a variety of topics, and a variety of forms in my writing. I will edit and rework a piece that has potential all by myself. I am inspired by the world around me. I write several times a week. I enjoy writing something as simple as a note to a friend.
What advice would you give other writers?
Don't give up! Dream big! You are worthwhile, and your thoughts and feelings matter. Connect with other writers. Give and receive feedback. An online community is a great resource for publishing and growing in your craft.
How did you decide how to publish your books?
I searched for other authors to help me get started. I used a resource called Writer's Market. I was able to find my first publisher that way. My current publisher is an award-winning author and speaker, Todd Vick.
What do you think about the future of book publishing?
Book publishing is a great business. Authors and novices, as well as big companies want a piece of the pie. I think Amazon has given many a hope and a future. I am hopeful that the world will discover many a great work through such avenues, as well as online.
