Do you remember the first story you ever wrote?
CLOUDS was the first five years of my writing career. It was used as a healing tool more than anything else after the death of my dad. My anger toward God is abundantly clear throughout the entirety of the story. I hated Him, and yet, I needed Him, and I knew it.
CLOUDS paved the way for Death is Not the End, Daddy, and any other future stories I publish. I had to purge myself of the poison that was inside of me before I could truly glorify my Savior through my writing.
What is your writing process?
When I start a story and establish my characters, I then let the story come to life in front of me. I have a basic idea of where I want it to go, but the journey usually is much different than how I saw it when I started. I usually know what the ending will be within the first twenty to thirty pages, so I'm not writing with no end game in mind. Instead, I am filling in the details.
