Nayab asked K.A. Tucker:

When did you realize that you wanted to express your creativity and knowledge through writing? Was it encouraged by others? What creative expressions (e.g. art, dance, media, music) have you tried in the past, present or future to express your creativity through?

K.A. Tucker Hi Nayab -- I began writing novels a little over 5 years ago, though I used to spend my time writing stories when I was very young. I have had many passions in my life--cooking, home decorating, gardening--that I would say served as outlets for my creative side, though I never thought of them as that. I still love all those things, but they have taken a back seat to writing now :D
As far as being encouraged, writing was something I jumped into because I wanted to do it. I never told anyone besides my husband that I was writing a book until the book was done and I was self-publishing. It was met with mixed response (from excitement to quick dismissal). I think every writer gets that same reaction.
