Great question! I’d love to have written Much Ado About Nothing or The Taming of the Shrew, the original romantic comedies. If you could have written one book in history, what book would that be? They challenged each other in the most delicious way and it was a pure joy to write. What part of Annabelle did you enjoy writing the most?Īnnabelle’s interactions with Nick were my favorite parts.

It’s my hope that readers will follow their individual journeys and learn that you can always ask for help, it’s never too late to change, and that starting over is sometimes the bravest choice of all. There’s a lot to unbox in Wait For It as they characters struggle to let go of their self defeating patterns of behavior. What do you hope for readers to be thinking when they read your novel? Annabelle was such a force of nature in her walk on part in Paris Is Always a Good Idea that I couldn’t let her go and then, on that particular day, the complete story just popped into my head - while covered in suds and without a pen, naturally. The idea came to me while taking a shower in January of 2020. I’ve definitely had my own thinking adjusted by stories and I believe in the power of stories to improve people’s lives and circumstances.Ĭan you tell us when you started WAIT FOR IT, how that came about? Storytelling teaches us how to navigate the hardships that life sends our way.

Life is complicated and scary and frequently difficult. Why is storytelling so important for all of us? I’m currently working on my next women’s fiction romantic comedy and then I’ll dive right into the next library lover’s mystery.

What are some of your current and future projects that you can share with us? Books have always given me respite from real life, so it was gratifying to be the giver for a change. Having a reader tell me that my books got her through a particularly dark period in her life was one of my most rewarding moments. Tell us your most rewarding experience since being published. Learning how to research any topic is the best thing I ever learned.

Once I was in college, however, I became a top student and when I studied library science, I found my happy place. Seriously, until college I didn’t enjoy school at all except for the social aspects. What was the greatest thing you learned at school?
