My ideas come from literally everywhere, but most times from something I've read that is true that gets me thinking "what if". The idea for GATED came from a documentary about underground doomsday shelters and the idea for the book I'm working on now came from a news article about a family of bank robbers. Usually my mind sort of catches on something interesting and then starts building from there.(less)

I will turn 47 on October 3rd and then, on the 14th, my husband and I will celebrate 24 years of marriage! But I also love this month because it’s when we plan a yearly trip out of Florida to get a taste of fall in a place where the temperature hovers closer to 60 degrees than 100 deg Read more of this blog post »
