If you are traditionally published, who is your agent? If you are self-published, what publishing software do you prefer/ who is your publisher?

I don’t have an agent, The Undertow of Grief and my next book coming out in January are published by BURMAN BOOKS Media Corp.

What was the most challenging part of writing your book?

As a first time author, every stage was challenging. I thought about writing this book for sixteen years and when I finally sat down and was disciplined enough to write it, it took two and half years. Then there was the challenge of finding an agent and publisher. I honestly had no idea how difficult it would be to do that.

What is one book that profoundly impacted you as a writer, and why?/What is the most important message you hope readers take away from your book?

A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving is my favourite book. I read it long before I even thought about writing my book but what always resonated with me was how life can shift from joy to tragedy in the blink of an eye. What I hope readers take away from my book is a deeper understanding of the long term effects of trauma, that they are not alone and there is a way to live beside it.

What are three fun facts about you?

•I have a vast shoe collection.

•I am a huge animal lover, we currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats.

•I never cook.

If you could give any advice to a new writer/author, what would it be?

Be prepared for a massive amount of rejection. Don’t let it defeat you and educate yourself about the different ways to get your book out there.
