Fantasy Romance. I have always loved to read books that you take away from reality.
3) What inspired you to become a writer?
I never planned to become an author. I was a theater kid, who hated to write. But I have always loved to read. The idea for The Last Pendragon was in my head for over 20 years, but I never planned to actually write it. Until covid, when I was going to school to get my hypnosis certificate, and I was home schooling two small kids. I needed an escape. One day during a mediation class, the first 7 chapters came to me and basically demanded to be written.
