When did you first start writing?
I kept a diary when I was about twelve and wrote about my tween crushes, problems, and poetry. I also wrote a picture book when I was in the second grade.
What's the story behind your latest book?
My latest book is based on visits to the towns of Ocean Grove and Asbury Park, New Jersey, and features a ghost hunter and several ghosts. I love visiting that part of the Jersey Shore. I also enjoy taking ghost tours when I travel, and a few ideas sprang from the tales I heard while on tour.
