Featured Interview With Dr. Lynda Mubarak
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I am a Texas native, retired teacher and US Army veteran. I love writing stories for children that emphasize early literacy, community service and career exploration. I enjoy crossword puzzles, painting birdhouses and live plays. My Stations for Kids Books includes the Detective Maxine Hill Series. Maxine is a 5th grade reading detective who loves solving challenges for her family, school and neighborhood. Maxine is currently investigating careers in forensic science, architecture and forestry.
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
I fell in love with books in kindergarten and had a huge collection of books by age nine. I loved listening to detective stories on radio as a child and I tried to solve the mysteries as each story progressed. My formal writing did not begin until after retirement, although I think I was writing mentally in elementary school.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
My favorite authors are Anita Bunkley, Ralph Ellison, Walter Mosley, President Barack Obama, James Baldwin, and Langston Hughes. My favorite genre is always Detective!
Tell us a little about your latest book?
My latest book is Maxine’s Hands, Book 3 in the Detective Maxine Hill Series. Maxine is preparing for a special project in her community when she discovers another local unique situation that requires her investigative skills. Maxine Hands is due for release in June 2020.
