Smashwords Interview

When did you first start writing?
I think I've always written since I could spell at least to some extent. I always played out little scenes and characters in my mind when I was daydreaming. I still do when I've got a new idea rolling around in there. I was about seven or eight when I got an American Girl doll. With the doll came a little book in which you were meant to write your doll's story, so I did that. And I think I was thirteen when I actually sat down at a computer and started to write something for myself. I haven't stopped since then.
Do you remember the first story you ever wrote?
I think it was in second grade around Halloween. We had to write a story to go along with a haunted house picture. I wrote a story about a girl who was dared to go into the house and met a vampire. The vampire turned out to be nice, and I learned the difference between the words hoovered and hovered.
