How did you get your start in the industry?
Well, Open House: Pool of Souls is my first published book….

Do you have a muse? Describe this person, please.
I don’t have one particular muse. My characters are my muses.
My characters whisper…. does that sound strange. I joke that I have a multiple personality
disorder, but that’s how it feels to me sometimes. ROFL! My husband has even told
me he’s had conversations with some of my characters in the middle of the night.
So apparently, even when I’m sleeping, they are creeping around up there!

I read mostly contemporary, paranormal, and a few science fiction
