Advertisement
In the summer of 1994, I was a bored 11 year old. I spent the summers with my grandparents, and they couldn't entertain me all the time. So I had to entertain myself. I started writing.
my dream is 25 years in the making, it's gone through several incarnations until I realized what it needed to be for today's youth
The stage is horse racing, so I'd have to say REALLY fast horses.
4
North Oak (the series) is the bestselling contemporary young adult horse racing series in the country. The first 7 books are frequently in the top 10 of the young adult equestrian genre on Amazon.
5
Series. And I like to call it heir to the Thoroughbred Series, which was super popular when I was a kid.
North Oak champions tough kid and teen issues, all set against the high-stakes fast paced world of horse racing. I hope one day to meet the person who says "Me. You wrote this for ME." And I'll hug them and tell them "I know."
7
Make daily word goals. Never kick yourself if you don't get all the way there. You're not a failure unless you quit.
8
I think all my characters have some sliver of me in them. Little horcruxes of myself ;)
9
A snarky, troubled teen, and really fast horses. North Oak has heart.
North Oak #8 will begin work in the next month or so. I hope to have #9 and #10 out by year's end.

With ghosts running amock throughout all of Cathay, Qin Ye must reluctantly adopt the mantle of ‘hero’ and bring peace to both the living and the dead, while rebuilding Hell.
