Tell us more about yourself and how you have decided to publish a book. I grew up in a small town in Iowa. I married a man from my high school and this union gave me many adventures in Iowa, Texas, and Nebraska. From this marriage I have three children. Jason, a Sgt. Major at Fort Bragg, NC. Jaclyn, a vocational rehabilitation supervisor in Minneapolis, MN. Joseph, is a Master Sergeant in the Air Force at Offutt Air Force Base, in Nebraska. We moved 19 times in 10 years. When we moved to Nebraska, I told him I would only move again if I could go back to college. I did and got my Fine Arts in Education Degree, started teaching high
school art then got my special education endorsement and moved to 7-12 special education. From that, I got my Masters of Science from Drake University and became a Dean of Student at a high school in Iowa. When did you first realize you wanted to be a writer and what inspired you? I got divorced and started actually doing things I wanted to do. I became my REAL self. I had always loved telling stories. My friends and I grew up tell ghost stories, going into places during slumber parties to investigate strange sounds. I was always the one in front. I would use storytelling to my students
