- “I once said I should write down all the story ideas in my head so someone could write them someday. I had no idea at the time that someone was me! I mean, even my dollies and Barbies had backstory!” My characters struggle in some way for their identity. Their stories are their journey to know who God created them to be. There is also a strong element of friends, family, and faith in all my stories, and the difference it makes to have such a support system. I am a Christian and write from a Christian world view, but some of my characters are not believers and therefore do not abide by the Bible and the guidelines for life that we take for granted. My books contain some mild swear language in a few places—and demonstrate the difference when the grace of God prevails. • unsavory heritage series—seven generations, from Cissy to Connie, each with their own secrets, one of which is ugly and unsavory, and initiates the curse they all bear • Seasons series—four friends, each one struggling to know the truth of just what happened when one of them plunged into the depths of the black waters of the Edisto River I started writing as a self-prescribed therapy in 1995, and began working in earnest on my debut novel, Tessa in 2013. Meanwhile, I cranked out a few dozen poems, and made countless notes for story ideas. I lived with depression for many years, and the inherent feelings of worthlessness and invisibility; I didn’t want to be who I was and struggled with my own identity. My characters face many of these same demons. I have lived in the Upstate of South Carolina since 1988. I lived in Colorado for sixteen years, during which time I: went to high school, got married, had babies, got divorced, and went to college. My “babies” are now grown, two have babies of their own. I currently live alone, with my five cats. My greatest priority and highest calling is to honor God in all I do, especially with the talents and abilities He’s given me. Like writing. Tessa is available on Amazon, both for Kindle and in print. The sequel, Clara Bess, will be released this summer. I also has several poems included in an anthology, Where Dreams and Visions Live (Anthologies of the Heart Book 1) by Mary Blowers, http://maryblowers.com.
