“My biggest lesson about writing was when I was a little girl and would overhear adults say "one day I will write a book". When I would see them again, sometimes several years later, they repeated the same thing, without any action towards writing their book. I didn't want to be like them and learned the basic rule of creating is to just do it. Therefore, when I wanted to be a writer, I did just that. I wrote and my first book and figured out self-publishing in 2010. It was a learning curve but also an amazing journey. Thankfully, the people I met as a little girl taught me this very important life lesson.”
