Carolyn Dingman grew up as a nomadic military brat often making up stories that the adults referred to as "lies." She is now a grown-up and hardly ever lies anymore unless she's writing fiction where it is considered socially acceptable. She studied Architecture at Clemson University which in no way prepared her for a career in writing. Her first novel is called, CANCEL THE WEDDING (HarperCollins, August 2014.)

My two daughters and I all loved your first book (and interestingly enough we don't always agree on what constitutes a good read!) So we're wondering if you're working on another book?

I'm so glad that you all liked it and I really appreciate you reaching out to me. I have two daughters also and I know how weird it is when we all three agree on something. Ha! And second, I am working on the next one but I don't have a publication date yet. :( I would love to say, "It's hitting stores in X months!" But I don't know yet. I will definitely post updates when/if I find out more. Thank you again!! Carolyn (less)

I especially loved when she called writing a "noble business." I may jot that down and put it over my keyboard so I can point to it when my kids tell me to get off the computer.

Best of luck with your writing, Karen.(less)
