29 May 2024
What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Murder at the College?
I’ve been making up stories since childhood and like connecting through reading and writing.
If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of Murder at the College, what would they be?
Something smoky and bluesy with a saxophone and piano that makes you think of private detectives and secrets.
What’s your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?
I love the red herrings and plot twists in mysteries.
What books are on your TBR pile right now?
Lee Child’s The Secret, Robert Dugoni’s The Last Agent, and J.A. Jance’s Nothing to Lose.
What scene in your book was your favorite to write?
The action scenes when Quinn’s enthusiasm gets her into trouble.
Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)
I need my two dogs, one little mutt and one giant Poodle, in the room with me. They both snore.
Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?
Stay calm and keep moving forward.
If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?
The book took the reader away from whatever was troubling them and entertained them.
