21 Things You Need To Know About Me:
* What book have you gifted the most? Why?
I have gifted Spirit Bond the most. Spirit Bond is my first audiobook. Jessica Caruso did a fantastic job narrating this book. My daddy also wants his story heard.
* What is the one productivity tool you use every day? Why?
I use my cell phone the most. In particular, I use my notepad to write more than I use my phone to talk. My phone is always near me.
3. What word do you misspell most often?
This is hilarious! I write a lot using my phone. My smart phone thinks it knows what I want to say, but it almost always corrects the word chicken to children. So every time I ask my husband to pick up Walmart chicken, my phone corrects it to children! Our conversation would look like this, ” Hunny, can you pick up Walmart children for supper tonight?” He always says, ” I don’t think I can do that!”
4. What three things do you do to be a successful writer?
The most important thing I do as a successful writer is I write from my heart. Then I write simply. I want everyone to understand my words. Not just educated people. The third thing I do is I respond to every person who sends me emails or connects with me about my books.
5. What are the titles of the last two books you have read?
The most recent book I read was Kid of the King by Elain Elizabeth Presley. She is my cousin. Very interesting book! The other last two books I read were from another cousin. She was adopted as well. Akin to the Truth and After the Truth are written by Paige Strickland.

9. What is your ‘go to’ munchie or drink while writing?
Oh, this one is easy. Chocolate and coffee are my go to munchies and drink.
10. Is a picture worth a thousand words? Elaborate.
I don’t think a picture is worth a thousand words. Pictures do not show everything. For instance, I have a grade school picture of myself. I’m wearing a turtleneck. The turtleneck is covering the bruises on my neck. The picture is an adorable image of me smiling. The picture hides not just my bruises, but the pain inside of me.
11. What animal are you most similar to, and why?
One of my grandsons has a Native American father. He has given me the Arctic Wolf as my spirit animal. He did that because of my resilience.
