When did you decide to be a writer? Have you always wanted to be a writer?
The truth is, I always loved to read and since I have a hard time falling asleep, I used to make up stories in my head until I fell asleep. Then I’d pick it up
the next night & add to it. One day, not too long after I had my first baby, I felt like I’d lost myself a bit and was now just a mom whose baby cried at her
all day. Don’t get me wrong, being a mom is a HARD job! And my baby did stop crying at me eventually, but I knew something was missing in my life, and
I felt like I needed something that was mine. So I sat down and started writing a novel. The sadness that’d hung over me went away, I couldn’t wait to sit
down & write more, and that was pretty much it. I knew I was supposed to be a writer!
