I've been obsessed with the Kennedys since I was a child, and Bobby Kennedy is, hands down, my favorite among them.
I find flawed characters much more interesting than perfect ones and enjoy the challenge of making readers root for them in spite of their unsympathetic path and destructive choices.
I try to write about real women, real people - in other words flawed characters.
My favorite movie of all-time is 'Stand By Me,' and I re-read my favorite young adult books often.
For an interesting nonfiction read, I really enjoyed 'Quiet' by Susan Cain. I read it with my husband, who is a true introvert, whereas I am an introvert masquerading as an extrovert.
I've always been intrigued by the power of secrets. When is it justifiable to keep them from the ones we love? And does keeping them irrevocably change who we are?
