At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
I’ve had a fascination with books and reading as far back as I can remember. I wrote my first short story when I was probably around 8 or 9 (never saved it though). It was a story inspired by Beverly Cleary’s Ramona Quimby books.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
Some of my favorites are The Hour I First Believed by Wally Lamb; The Brooklyn Follies by Paul Auster and The Stranger Beside Me by Ann Rule. True crime is my favorite genre.

My latest book is entitled A Godless Love. The inspiration for this book stems from my background being raised in a religious cult that has immense control over its member’s lives, including the sex lives of married couples.
