I read everything on my laptop at the moment. It is just more convenient for me. I do have a tablet and may switch some time in the future but for now it is kindle for PC.

My desk is where ever I have my laptop. I do move around when I am writing but mostly I write at a table, with all my papers scattered around me.

I grew up all along the east coast. We lived in Florida, Georgia, Tennessee and finally settled down when I got older in Virginia. I think that has made my writing better because I got the chance to be around so many different people and experience the subtle differences in life that the places generated. I understood very early that someone who lives in Georgia would act differently than someone who lives in New York.

I started my first book in college but I have been writing since I was about six years old. I would write short stories and poems mostly.

I wrote the book for my son because he wanted a dragon story one night. We decided to write it "together", which basically means I did the writing while he listened to the story. He would name characters for me though.

I like the freedom that being an indie author provides. I am not tied down by a contract or stuck in a particular genre because of my publishing company.

I think the greatest joy of writing for me is the actual writing itself. I love being able to create the characters and how they react to whatever situation I put them in.

Edgar Allan Poe is my favorite author. I love his work.

My son, who wouldn't let me sleep late even when I really want to.

I spend most of my time with my son, whom I home school. I enjoy teaching him and going places together.

I am working on another Fantasy novel about a solider who is recruited by a sorceress to help her complete a quest. I try to show modern day reactions to magic in the novel. I have used some historical information when I developed the plot.
