Where did you grow up, and how did this influence your writing?
I grew up Long Beach, California. It didn't influence my writing at all, but being in a certain place does influence the settings of your story. I now live in San Diego and it most certainly did influence the settings/surroundings of my book.
When did you first start writing?
I started writing in Jr. High.. Most of us start out with a journal (diary) .. I loved writing out my feelings. In High School I loved English class and loved to be creative with my writing. I did write a story but never published it. I haven't written a book since then and that was over 21 yrs ago.
