When did you begin writing with the intention of becoming published?
I began writing with theintention of being published in the late 1970's - I knew that I had something to offer the reading public.
Did your environment or upbringing play a major role in your writing and why?
Yes, it did. Mymother has always been an avid reader. She passed that along to me. As a child I wrote as well as readbefore I ever started to school.
Do you come up with your title (s) before or after you write the manuscript (s)?
With Stan's Story,the title was originally A Touch of Love. That title came after I started writing. It seemed fitting for theman who is my hero. The Tangled Minds title came as the book was germinating in my creative mind.Brilliant Insanity was given to me by my publisher when he heard the story line. Silent Scream came as Iwas writing the book. The title came about because the victims were gagged and could only screamsilently in their heads and hearts as they watched while one was killed and then while they were beingkilled. They now have a voice and it is heard.
Tell us why you write the genre(s) that you write?
I started out with Stan's story because it was abook of success. I wanted the world to know what a special man he is. Tangled Minds and BrilliantInsanity were my imagination, although Tangled Minds is based on a true crime. Brilliant Insanity is aprelude to my true crime book. That is the area I am staying with. The reason is my background. I have adegree in Criminal Justice and am a Bounty Hunter. I like crawling around in the mind of the criminal. Ilike digging around to find out how and what they think. My true crime books also give the victims avoice. They can finally be heard so they can sleep well.
