The Interview<\/h3>\n

When did you know that you wanted to be an Author? How did you choose your genre?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I love writing and telling stories, but it wasn\u2019t until a close friend became an author that I felt confident enough to publish my first novel. I write romance because I love to read it.<\/p>\n

What do you like to do when you\u2019re not writing?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sleep, hahaha. Seriously, I love to swim in the ocean, hang out with friends, visit new places, eat out in restaurants.<\/p>\n

If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go and why?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I would love to travel to the U.S.A. I live in Europe but have so many American friends I\u2019d like to meet up with. Also see places I\u2019ve only seen in movies or read about.<\/p>\n

Which character from any of your books are you most relatable?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Beth in \u201cGame On\u201d. I was a Spanish teacher like her, although I\u2019ve never had a relationship with one of my students.<\/p>\n

Are any of your stories based on personal experience?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Some of my teaching experience I used in \u201cGame On\u201d but that\u2019s it. I have a wildly wicked imagination and like to make stuff up.<\/p>\n

Wine or Liquor?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wine. I live in Italy where the wine is relatively cheap and oh so delicious.<\/p>\n

Which is more important to you, character development or plot?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Character development always. My characters become so real to me I dream about them. Their choices influence plot.<\/p>\n

What do you want readers to experience when they read your work?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I want them to fall in love with my characters and feel what they feel.<\/p>\n

What would the title be of the movie about your life?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Changing Direction<\/p>\n

What motto do you live by?<\/strong><\/p>\n

“There is no elevator to success \u2014 you have to take the stairs.”<\/p>\n

Who are some of your favorite Authors?<\/strong><\/p>\n

So many, too many to list.<\/p>\n

Eat the chocolate or watch your calories?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Eat the chocolate!!! (My scales broke)<\/p>\n

Finally, what message do you have for your readers?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched – they must be felt with the heart. … (Helen Keller).<\/p>\n
