Wish I could buy this for myself (and all my friends) for Christmas, wrap it up and put it under the tree — but I have to wait until MAY!
Do you have any upcoming books you're working on? I loved Nantucket Blue.
Thank you! Yes, Nantucket Red (a sequel) is coming out on May 13, 2014!

When did you know you wanted to be a writer? Where did you get the inspiration to create Nantucket Blue?
I always knew I wanted to be a writer, though I also wanted to be an actress for a while, too. I was inspired to write Nantucket Blue when I was working through a difficult friendship break-up as an adult. I was writing to try to understand my feelings. Also, I love the summertime, especially in New England! It was such a joy to transport myself there as I was writing.
