Here are some of the questions I am asked most frequently.

Question: Why do you write?
Answer: Simply because I love to write. One of my first memories is sitting on the kitchen floor while my mother cooked and copying the letters from the packages of sugar, flour, salt, etc.. After I learned enough words, I began to write stories, and have never stopped.

Question: How do you write a book?
Serious Answer: By spending the required hours to research the subject thoroughly, and organizing it in a way I would like to read it. But this is the inside scoop.

I fill the word hopper, turn my imagination on high, and grind until its done!


Question:
When do you write?    
Answer:
Generally before daybreak.

Question: How do you write?  
Answer:
On a computer. It's a far cry from my pencil and tablet on the kitchen floor, but the thrill of putting words together is still the same.

Question: Since you've written about ghosts, have you ever seen one?
Answer: No, but I who knows? I may!

Question: Do you read manuscripts for other aspiring writers?
Answer: No, sorry, I do not.
