Do you spend more time thinking about the future or the past? Why?
Neither. I can’t fix the past. All I can do is learn from it. One can contemplate the future and make tentative plans for it and even dream. But, since events can and do happen outside of our control, all we can do is hope and pray about it. Thus, we can’t control the future either. We can control our present, so that’s where my mind is mostly. That and Jesus.
What makes you feel nostalgic?
What makes me feel nostalgic is being together with family or witnessing a family and/or friends setting which reminds me of a time when I was younger.
Growing up, we went camping a lot. What I particularly liked about those times were the variety of scents around us such as: camp fires, pine needles, the scent of the lake blowing in on a gentle breeze….. All of these experiences, when I encounter them now, make feel nostalgic.
What colleges have you attended?
Saginaw Valley State University – BA
University of Phoenix- MA x 2
Do you play in your daily life? What says “playtime” to you?
What says playtime to me is after I’ve done a days work. I use playtime to unwind. I know many can relate to that😁.
I have to say that my biggest challenge is marketing. But, on a positive note, that opens me up to thinking more outside the box when it comes to thinking up new ways to market my books.
Do you trust your instincts?
I do now. In the past I should have listened to them and I didn’t. I should have.
I would have to say June because everything in nature is freshly sprouted and new then transitioning into summer when all is on display.
What personality trait in people raises a red flag with you?
It’s hard to pinpoint any one personality trait. It’s more of a feeling I get after being around them for awhile.
Share a story about the furthest you’ve ever traveled from home.
I traveled to Europe twice. The first time was to live for a few years, as I was a military wife. The second time was years later with my dad to visit family. Both times, even though I knew it was temporary, I missed my homeland (USA) very very much. But I don’t regret having made both of these trips. It’s experience to draw from when I write.
I have to honestly say that, when I waste a lot of time, it’s done with playing games on my phone. Knowing this, I combat it with time limits. I make out a to do list each morning. After I finish one activity, I play a game for a ten to fifteen minutes, close it out, then on to the next item on my list.
WRITE TIME AND AGAIN
