Setting can be something that is a major player in a scene, something that makes the mood leap from the page. But if an author doesn't handle it right, it falls flat or seems overdone. It is a challenge getting it "just right".

I love meeting new people; I think everyone has a story to tell. We should all listen sometimes.

I think in most sports sometimes you need a little luck for the ball or calls to roll your way.

My greatest achievement so far is that I've been able to continue with my normal life. I love what I do, but more so, I'm glad to have people who care about me close by.

I do love wearing heels but my feet can't be in them all day long. I want to have fun and dance so I need to be comfortable.

The editing process is a necessary evil. I can write until the cows come home but it is all garbage until it gets edited.

I hope that in 5 years from now I'll be working and doing what makes me happy. Whatever that may be.
