Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I decided to follow my passion and embrace crafting short stories with an adventurous and dramatic twist. I have written and published more than five short stories. When I’m not writing, I enjoy spending time with my extended family, the outdoors, sunsets, exercising and working within the travel and tourism industry. I have one younger sibling and was raised by a single parent who contributed to my strength, inspiration and positive approach towards life. I reside on the sunny Caribbean Island of St. Lucia.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
My latest book is Can’t Get Enough Episode 4, titled- In too deep.
Because of the difficulty and frustration faced by many married couples and committed relationships to keep the fire burning in their union after many years, I found it fitting to write this humorous story. And it tells of how they can implement creative, fun ways to keep things interesting.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I always walk around and play out some scenes to get the emotional aspect of it. Before I start writing, I set up camp by bringing all necessary items near me.
