What Inspires You To Write?

What inspires you to write? I’ve considered this topic so many times. In the end, all I come up with is it’s fun to pretend. That, I suppose, makes one question what is the joy found in pretending? Most would answer because it’s an escape, and this is where authors and readers are often met on common ground. Pretty simple if you ask me, but how do you reach the people who want to get in touch with your flavor of escape? My flavor of escape is one that takes us to a world where we live happily...

Serissa’s Song, Soon to be Live!

Well, all my lovely readers, turns out things have just gotten REALLY strange around here. I do have some lovely news however, and I’ve also got some lacking news, but it isn’t bad news.

So, I’ll start with the more unfortunate news. I have no idea when we’ll get back to the author’s interviews . We WILL do them, at this point there’s two things that have impeded on our time here. Medical and professional. On my half you should know that the “seasonal” store I work for during the holidays, is...

Happy New Year Already?!?

Well, as you can imagine time has managed to evade me the last few months. I work retail and no matter how hard I try each year to devote time and space to my internet hobbies, my brain goes into a dormant/sleep mode because there just isn’t enough time in a day to do what I set out to do. However, I also work seasonally and with the holiday season on it’s way out, and the new year set in motion, I have found a few minutes for some of my own projects. Soon, I will be getting together with my...

A Little on the Personal Side:

· If you weren’t an author, what would you be? If I were younger, I’d probably be a chef. I love to cook and I love food. I was fortunate to be in a position when my husband was a California Senator to explore entertaining on a big scale. It wasn’t uncommon to have 20 or 30 guests in our home for a fundraiser. I usually cooked five cour...

Author Interview with Bryce Westervelt

Welcome to the Page to Page promo Interview series Bryce!

A Little on the Personal Side:

If you weren’t an author, what would you be? I am a professional classical singer. I might be more active with my singing, but that’s definitely one of my passions. I think this is why I write – I look at my kids books as way to communicate with an audience, just in a different medium (text and pictures rather than notes and lyrics).

What types of books do you read? Surprisingly, I read a lot of business boo...

Author Interview with Richard Godwin

A Little on the Personal Side:

If you weren’t an author, what would you be? A Painter.


What is your all-time favorite book? So hard to say since books are often defined by their cultural context, Great Expectations, for Dickens’s brilliant plotting and storytelling, and Crime And Punishment for Dostoyevsky’s depth of characterisation and the way he changed the novel.

Author Interview with Dominique Wilkins

A Little on the Personal Side:

What three things do you think your readers would be surprised to know about you? I was the top person (only girl) in my Ford automotive maintenance class (so I can do my own repairs); I tell my husband EVERYTHING (he knows ALL of my secrets and yours too! Uh oh); I cry about something at least once a week!
