Where do you get your ideas for your novels? They are amazing, but also brutal and intense, so I was curious as to how you come up with the specific topics of each book. Absolutely love your writing. Those girls was one of the first books, to make me stay up all night during pregnancy, while keeping me on the edge of my seat. Not an easy thing to accomplish by a writer, with the exhaustion of pregnancy.

Oh my gosh Chevy, I am delighted that we are friends! I live in Vancouver, B.C. so we are fellow Canadians. I am intrigued about your inspiration for Still Missing. As an avid reader of true crime stories could Still Missing be one of them? What also fascinates me is how does one go about establishing themselves as an author and finds an agent or publisher to get started in your career?
