Smashwords Interview

What are you working on next?
There are so many books we are publishing right now. We've got all the following ready to launch early in 2017.
* Horror - Odd Doors of Carson County - a new sheriff confronts a series of murders in a small town and finds clues only through doors that mysteriously appear in the middle of barren fields.
* Children's -- Little Shop of Big Dreams - a little girl, troubled by her parent's breakup, re-discovers herself by falling into another world of fantasy, mystery and purpose.
* ATLAS Trilogy - Book II is coming out soon. A book on a dystopian future in America.
* Strange Treasures of Gramma Zulov - Book I - a young boy finds ancient relics with mysterious powers in a trunk in his great grandmother's house.
What inspires you to write?
Story lines often come flooding into my head each day, but I get excited when one of those ideas makes someone else excited. Those feelings are contagious and push me to write. As I don't always know how the story will end when I begin it, I am then as interested in finding out the ending as I hope my readers are when they read them.
