Welcome Lisa.
You have a new extravaganza release, Everything Noel.

How did you come up with your title? The original story was based on a Scriptural reference and had to do with pride. When the story came together for me, the characters were involved in a Pygmalion-type experience where an unsuspecting young man was being groomed as America's next hottest movie star of a film titled Everything About You. It seemed like a good title for the book as well. |

How much of the book is based in real life? Only the setting, a small, don't-blink-community named Liberty Pole not far from where I live. For some reason, whenever I drove through, I kept seeing a helicopter landing on the highway in front of one of the farms. Fish farming is a growing industry, and I would love to see it continue to develop in Wisconsin and other places. |

Do you have a person you consider a mentor? When I first took an online course in writing through a Christian organization, I was assigned Sandra Byrd as my mentor. Throughout the year and a half we worked together, she was encouraging, parting with "see you out there," which inspired hope. |
|
|
What book are you reading now? I am reading Judy DuCharme's novel Blood Moon Redemption. Judy is a fellow Wisconsin writer, and I have always enjoyed her body of work, and the subtle twists and surprises she manages to sneak in, as well as her enormous research she makes looks so effortless when applied to good story-telling skills. |
