My Latest Interview with Fellow Blogger, Robin Rice

Friends & Family,

Check out my newest interview beautifully done by fellow blogger Robin Rice here.

A short excerpt:

What inspired you to start writing? Ever since grade school, I had a natural inclination to write stories, with a big imagination. I daydreamed a lot. But what makes my ability to write so extraordinary was that I hated to read and had reading comprehension problems through elementary and secondary schools. Still, somehow I could write, for the most part, grammatically correctly. Thankfully, I could also spell pretty well. I believe watching TV shows and movies were my inspiration to be able to write. It goes along with my being a visual learner, seeing the scenes in which my characters are within, like a movie in my head. 

How long have you been writing? If I include the works I wrote in my early teens through my mid-twenties and since starting back up in 2014, it would be about fifteen years.

What She Didn’t Know – Most Likely the Next Published Novel

On By dotluvs2writeIn Beauty, Fiction Writing, humanity, Inspirational, Nature, News Events2 Comments

My longest novel, What She Didn’t Know, that I started writing in January 2018 and finished in July 2019, will most likely be the next book I publish.

I’ve been told, and I also believe, it may be my “breakout” novel. A fellow critique writer helped me spruce up the novel’s blurb that will be on the book. It is the newest version. It may be changed just a bit in the coming months, but right now, it works. Here it is:

Nature-loving Gloria and her sisters Michaela and Seraphima grew up at the hands of an alcoholic, abusive father. At thirteen, Gloria runs away, leaving her two sisters and parents for a decade. A change in events brings her back home to her sisters in the thick of marital struggles and strained relationships. Shortly after, the family’s world is rocked, with tragedy striking and secrets lingering. Will Gloria be the linchpin to her family’s healing?

And here’s a picture of the book cover design I created that I’m wanting to use.

So, if you read Passage of Promise, and even if you haven’t, keep an eye out for this gem to be published hopefully by early next year. 🙂
