As a closing post, I wanted to do two more spotlights on some fellow authors and their wonderful books! Take a look!

1.) What books from your childhood sparked your imagination?
The Chronicles of Narnia, Goosebumps books and Fear Street Books (thanks, R.L. Stine!).
2.) What gets your imagination going now?.
Taking a Shower. Nothing like being too soaking wet to write or type down an idea. It's a curse.
3.) When you get writers block, how do you get past it?
Write through it!
4.) What is your writing process like? Do you plan everything out before you write it? Just go with the flow?
It depends on the book. Some I've just written and now I'm starting to try planning, to make rewrites a little more managable.
5.) What is your favorite dessert?
All of them :)

when it will be up, but I will keep you posted!
Forget Me Not
“Cole
Dyami is a mysterious boy with a dangerous secret. Adeline Jasely is a typical
teenage girl. Living in the seemingly normal small town of Great Falls Montana,
Adeline is confronted with everyday teenage problems by a not so normal
beautiful boy. As Adeline and Cole’s worlds collide, the line between illusion
and reality is blurred. According to a tribal legend, Adeline and Cole are no
longer two friends, but two pieces in a complicated mystery. Suddenly, Adeline
finds herself in a world she never knew existed. Along side Cole, she attempts
to unravel the mysteries of the small Chippewa tribe in order to not only find
out who Cole Dyami truly is, but who she is as well. As Cole and Adeline begin
to uncover the secrets behind the legends of the Chippewa tribe, illusion
slowly unravels into reality and friendship gradually melts into a mutual need
of survival.”
1.) What books from
your childhood sparked your imagination?
Every book by Marianne Curley. Her
books inspired me to not only read more, but to become a writer.
2.) What gets your
imagination going now?
Music and reading. Nothing better
than listening to some of The Civil Wars and reading a good book.
3.) When you get
writers block, how do you get past it?
This may sound strange, but I pray.
I am a huge believer and I know my gift of writing is from my God. So, if I am
ever struggling, I walk away from the computer, pray for some guidance and
direction, then a little later come back and can finish writing. You can say
Jesus is my muse.
4.) What is your
writing process like? Do you plan everything out before you write it? Just go
with the flow?
My process is pretty laid back. I usually play some
music to help me get in the right mindset, drink some coffee, and sit down at
my computer and let it all out. I am less structured and tend to let a scene
flow the way it wants or let the characters do whatever comes naturally. I may
have a brief outline, but I sometimes don't always follow it.
5.) What is your favorite
dessert?
Oh, this one’s tough! But I’d have
to say peanut butter pie is the bomb. I love me some pie!
