Favorite reads?
I love suspense that could really happen. Zombies and ghosts don’t scare me, but a stranger with a droopy eye and his hand jigging my front door knob will give my shivers shivers.
Inspirations for the book?
A Soul’s Kiss was inspired by a book I read told from the point of view of a woman in a coma. I took the idea to a different level, allowing my character to interact with others on a spirit plane.
Did you know you wanted to be an author when you were little?
I didn’t know writing was in my future though there were plenty of clues: a sci-fi story I still have from fourth grade, a folder of angst-filled poetry, and several diaries that chronicled my life from seventh grade until I married.
Any Pet Peeves?
I am frequently annoyed by the misuse of apostrophes.
Chocolate or Peanut Butter?
CHOCOLATE!
The weirdest thing you've ever done?
I had to ask my husband to help me with this one because I tend to block out embarrassing moments. His first two choices were unsharable so the third weirdest thing I’ve ever done was to run after a pair of ducks while flapping my arms wildly. I was only trying to scare them out of mating in our swimming pool.
Is there a soundtrack to the book/Favorite music?
Yes, and you can hear it in the trailer. Listen here:http://youtu.be/e5rYFblTNBg
Do you need anything to write?
I only need quiet and a bit of inspiration. I get plenty of both living in the middle of the woods.
How long do you write on any average day?
How long I write varies day to day, but I try to produce a thousand words, more or less.
Give us the number one reason to read your book.
If you want to read a book that satisfies your need to escape, experience a different reality, make you feel like you’re seventeen, and fall in love then A Soul’s Kiss is for you. Also, I’ll give you chocolate.
