INTERVIEW
Describe yourself in five words: Thinks outside of the box.
Tell us about your writing/editing/publishing process: Don’t get it right, get it written. Proofread. Have an experienced writer friend critique it. Rewrite.
What do you love about being an author? I love the way it sharpens my verbal skills. I am intrigued at the way my characters help write my fiction. Ethelred, the Medieval love interest told me that I was ready for the final draft. For some reason, I just wasn’t ready to present it until now, even though I started this piece back in the Eighties.
Salty or sweet: Salty. I definitely don’t write overly sentimental stuff. I like humor, too.
How would you spend your perfect day? I will give you a string of adjectives: Quiet, sunny, unhurried. And a cute would make an appearance.
What inspired you to write “Maiden Voyage”? A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court by Mark Twain.
Do you have any writing rituals? I like to have it quiet. I prefer being alone so I can concentrate.

If you could meet any other author who would it be? Janet Evanovich – she’s so funny!
Is social media more of a help or a hinder? Very much ! I have a blog on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Blogs-about-
Writing-390862691510669/?ref=bookmarks. I have a lot of writer friends on Facebook and Twitter.
What are you reading right now? Turning the Tide by Edith Maxwell – The sleuth is a Quaker midwife and it is set in 1888.
What do you want your readers to take away from your books? I want the reader to follow my characters through my novella as if on a journey with them.
What are you working on right now? I am basically a blogger, but I will be featuring another Cozy Mystery tomorrow in Blogs About Writing.
