1. What is your favorite Autumn Time activity?
a) Reading (naturally), horse back riding in the middle of the day (instead of early in the morning because it’s so darn hot) and camping but more than anything enjoying soups!!
2. What is one of your writing quirks?
a) Drinking fountain soda, 75% diet dp with 25% regular dp in a styrofoam cup, of course. My latest thing is to be on a zoom with one of my author wives
3. Which of your books was your favorite to write? And why?
a) This might be the worst question because whatever my WIP is, that’s my favorite. The excitement is still there (the story hasn’t reached the terrible toddler tantrums yet)
4. Who is the person or group of people who most support you in your writing? What have they done for you?
a) This is a tough question. I feel like there’s not ONE person but rather a village. My family (husband and three daughters) help out with day-to-day encouragement but there’s also an inner circle of writers that I lean on (and sometimes heavily). There’s an emotional aspect of writing that only other writers can truly understand. Those dark moments are when I cling to them.
5. What is your trick for getting past writer's block? And what advice would you give to others who are struggling?
a) Writer’s block (for me) exists when I’m just “over” the story. This happens to every story and every writer (although we all deal with differently). Sometimes I force myself to write just a sentence. I’ve also tried to reward myself “if I finish this chapter, I can ____"
6. Autumn time has its own set of foods/flavors. What is your favorite Autumn comfort food?
a) Any and all soups. Nothing is better than soups.
