I followed the man I love. My husband and I make our home in a small, rural community and my children are scattered throughout the U.S. Since my husband's retirement, my goal is to travel more and do my writing while we're on the road. Adventure awaits!For me, reading has always been an adventure. You never know where a book will take you. Will it make you laugh? Cry? Will you sit at the edge of your seat in anticipation? Will your heart thunder in passion? Will you sigh with compassion at a touching moment?I try to bring all this to my writing. It, Writing is an adventure for me, too. A character will pop into my mind at the oddest times; in the shower, in the grocery store, and quite often when I really should be doing something else! She speaks to me and I begin to see her in my mind, what she looks like, where she's from, what she was like as a girl. She's not a little girl now and she has a story to tell.That's where the adventure begins because while I know where my character is going, I'm never quite sure how she'll get there. It's hard work slogging through life to get to happily ever after, but unlike many of my characters, I'm a romantic at heart and I believe...anything is possible and a Happily Ever After is out there waiting to be found.view less
