One word to describe my entire creative writing life journey so far: GRATEFUL. I am grateful for all the beautiful loving, living beings who have supported me since I started this journey as a child of three writing on my Mom's cookbooks and recipe notebooks. I have immense gratitude to all the books, authors, teachers, students, fellow writers, readers, family, friends and furry and feathered creatures who have been there for me and whose love has sustained me through it all. I literally have to pinch myself each single day I face the blessed reality: "I'm a published author!" Fiction writing has been my first love ever since I put pen to paper, composing my own mystery stories inspired by reading those lovable Nancy Drew mystery series as a kid growing up in New Orleans and the Bay Area. And now, it's come to this: still celebrating the birth of Pretty as a Picture, Book Two of the Pretty Princess Trilogy and I'll say it's been nothing short of an amazing ride! Right on the heels of Book Two's release, I find myself still reveling in the literary universe that is the Principality of Moradonia! How blessed can one be to still have passion for all these characters and to revisit the fabulously scenic (some real, some imagined) locales along Western Europe and the Mediterranean! I truly wish for everyone to be embraced with the blessing of being able to create art and live life doing whatever it is you're passionate about! Stay inspired! Blessings and love to you all!
