I Love the humanistic touch you put into your books. Where do you get your ideas? Do you have themes ahead?
Catherine Ryan Hyde
I'm definitely a student of human nature, but otherwise I have no idea where these stories come from. I'm as perplexed as you are. I come up with one idea at a time, and I start with the characters and what they're up against. The theme kind of reveals itself as I go. I hope that's what you wanted to know. Thanks!

My Quarantine Book Club just finished Have You Seen Luis Velez. I have to tell you that we are all in love with the book and the characters and the hope you give the readers. I cannot wait to talk about the second half of the book next Monday! Do you ever attend virtual book club meetings to talk about your books with your readers?
