Goodreads asked Mommy Moo Moo:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Mommy Moo Moo My most recent book published is called Vegetable Chatter. I wrote it on 9/25/2013 at a writing retreat where I went to a hotel by myself to seek out peace and quiet. I brought only my spiral notebook and a pen, I wrote in my journal, and I listened. Eventually, creativity flows through me. I'm a vegetarian which I guess is where the inspiration started. I have a tough editorial team in my brain. I write, re-write, and keep re-writing until I'm happy and the story feels right. When I write, I see the characters and scenes in my head. Eventually, I hired an illustrator named Tom Edwards to bring the book to life. I took photographs of vegetables that looked like the characters in my vision and together we created every page of the book. I'm an artist and work with other artists to create my entire vision. This collaborative creative process is exciting and very satisfying to me. The book was officially published as an ebook on iTunes and Amazon Kindle on 11/4/2016. I'm currently seeking an FSC certified printer to create the board book format. The term "recent book" is relative.
