Smashwords Interview

What is the greatest joy of writing for you?
I love creating new worlds and getting to know the people that live in them. I get to spend time in someone else's shoes each time I sit down to write, and that makes my own life that much more interesting.
What do your fans mean to you?
They're the best support system in the world. I'm just starting out, and the words of encouragement help me get through and keep going when my confidence begins to waver.
