JULY QUESTION:  Is there anything you'd like to see changed, added, and/or rearranged by the book publishing industry?

I wish they'd focus more on finding the exceptional novels--the hidden gems-- of lesser important writers, instead of relying on celebrities, knowing that the fame of these authors will bring them immediate sales whether the book is well-written or not. 

 

 JUNE QUESTION:  Do most of your story ideas come from one place (the news, dreams, etc.) or do they hit from all over the place?

My story ideas come from everywhere and everything: from my own muse, a dream, real everyday life, my childhood living on a farm, the news, my own personal experiences, voracious reading. . . and the list goes on and on. I'm what you call a situational aware person who notices new environments and surroundings like a restaurant or a public gathering. I watch and listen to people in stores and crowds. It drives my husband crazy when I point to the restaurant booth behind me and lowly say," Shhh...I want to hear what those people are fighting about ." :)
