Why did you decide to be a writer?

I began my author career as a technical writer. My first manuscript formed over years of creating characters and story line.

Do you have a "day job"? If so, what do you do?

I am a patent agent.

What genres do you write?

YA and NA

What inspires you to write?

My aim is to engage, entertain, and enlighten my audience. I enjoy the feedback and discussion I get from my readers as much as writing itself.

What authors/books have most influenced you?

Tia Silverthorne Bach, Mary Stewart, Stephanie Meyer, Molly McAdams, Marie Lu, Scott Westerfield

When did you first consider yourself an author?

When I published my first book in May 2015.

What are your goals as an author?

I plan on finishing my NA series and writing more in the YA genre.

What is the biggest obstacle you face as an author and what do you do to overcome it?

A piece can never be perfect, it just must be finished at some point. I have a hard time just letting my manuscripts be.

Does your family support you in your writing, or are you on your own?

My family is very supportive. My teenage daughter helps me with graphic choices and story plots sometimes.

What is the best compliment you've ever received as an author?

Tobi Helton of Forget the Housework, I'm Reading blog texted me two days after I sent her my first book. "I bought your second book already. They are super addictive," she wrote. Her thoughts made my month.

What do you enjoy doing aside from writing?

I love being outdoors. My favorite activities are hiking, running, and biking.

If you were stranded on a deserted island, and you could only have five books with you, what would they be?

New Moon by Stephanie Meyer, The Pretties by Scott Westerfield, Chasing Memories by Tia Silverthorne Bach, The Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley, and The Crystal Cave by Mary Stewart

What made you decide to self-publish?

I've been friends with author Tia Bach for ten years. I let her read my then 150,000 word manuscript and she nudged me towards publishing.

Do you have anything specific you'd like to say to your readers?

I have been so blessed to meet so many wonderful people through my experience of publishing. At my first writer's convention I met a girl, named Amanda who was about to begin her freshman year at college. My main character's name is Amanda and in the first book of my series she is beginning her college career, it seemed like fate.
