Interview:
Did you always want to be a writer?
The short answer is no. The long answer is I’ve always been
an avid reader, but in high school, I took a chemistry class and fell in love
with the subject. So, I pursued a degree in chemistry and worked for years as a
research assistant before having children. After two moves and two kids in high
school, I taught chemistry. I retired after 10 years. That’s when I finally got
the bug to write. I coauthored my first book in 2013 with Kendra Armstrong
entitled Exploring the Faith of America’s Presidents. It was a
devotional type book that is no longer in print. My first novel, Deadly
Guardian, debuted in May, 2019.
What do you enjoy most about writing books?
That’s a hard question to answer because there are so many aspects about writing that I love. I enjoy seeing the story come together that’s in my mind. I enjoy the fellowship of other Christian writers. I enjoy brainstorming with other writers about my story and theirs. I enjoy learning more about the craft of writing. But I guess if I had to choose just one, it would be the joy of working with the Lord on a story and seeing it unfold. Many times, I come to a place in my writing where what happens next surprises even me! And I know it’s God taking over. It’s
How many books have you written?
To date, I’ve written one nonfiction book, five novels, and
one novella that appeared in a novella collection. I’ve also contributed short
stories to a dozen anthologies. My novels are divided into two series, the
Trouble in Pleasant Valley series, and the Mac & Sam Mysteries series. I
have three in the first series and two so far in the second with the third due
out next year. I’m also writing a fourth book in the Pleasant Valley series
that will come out next year.
What is your latest release?
My latest release, August 22, is The Case of Mistaken
Identity. It’s the second book in the Mac & Sam Mystery series. Mackenzie
Love and Samantha Majors are the owners of a private investigation firm in
Washington, Missouri, a small town outside of St. Louis. In this book, Mac has
a look-alike that is in serious trouble which turns into a deadly problem for Mac
as well! The first book in the series, The Case of the Innocent Husband
came out last year, 2022, and the third book, The Case of the Stolen
Memories, will be published in August, 2024. My hope is that my readers enjoy
this series as much as I enjoy writing it.
