What motivated you to become an indie author?
There were a lot of factors. It's a big world full of a lot of great authors. A lot of them, admittedly, better than me! I had little time to research agents and publishers well enough to write the perfect, individualized query letters. I started to hear great things about self-publishing, so I dug in.
What are you working on next?
I am writing a middle-grade fiction book. This started with a friend of mine giving me one word (cinnamon) and challenging me to write something about that word in 20 minutes. In 20 minutes I had created a whole story. I'm about half-way through writing that story now. I can't wait to see what happens!
