Updated on 28th December 2012

What inspired you to want to become a writer? I have always dreamed of writing since I was young. I didn’t start to write back then, because I didn’t have a typewriter. Yes, that’s when dinosaurs lived, lol.

It all began with a dream. I dreamed my story over and over again. I decided to write these novels after several weeks of dreaming about all of these characters.

I started brainstorming and organizing it into outlines. I developed each character’s personalities, interests, and personal love story.

I kept on track and was able to create cohesive plots by using a calendar as a timeline. I want to write feasible and believable stories that evolve around events that are transpiring in each cousin’s life in the same period of time. I love writing and I’m extremely happy to be achieving my dream.

Tell us your most rewarding experience since being published. My most rewarding experience has been meeting all of these remarkable authors and readers.

What is your dream cast for your book? OMG, this every author’s dream, lol.

What’s one piece of advice you would give aspiring authors? Go for it and give it your best. You will never know if you don’t try. You have to believe in yourself.

If you could choose only one time period and place to live, when and where would you live and why? England the Victorian period and an aristocrat, lol. I would love to have met Queen Victoria, enjoy the balls, and this is also the same time period in America of the Wild West. The period is fascinating, hmmmm, maybe I will write a story in this time period, lol.

If you could be one of the Greek Gods, which would it be and why? Athena – because she’s the Greek virgin goddess of reason, intelligent activity, arts and literature. I feel it’s fitting that she’s the goddess of arts and literature.

If you could live anywhere in the world where would it be? Europe, California, or Mexico.

What’s the craziest writing idea you’ve had? Well I have dreamt of some type of fairy and wizards story lines. I don’t know yet, but I have a vague story in my mind. Well, I did put the characters to sleep for now. I feel it is a little crazy idea.

What’s the best advice anyone has ever given you? You have to try to see if you can do it. You will never know if you don’t try.
