1. What inspired you to be a writer?

*I’ve always wanted to be an author, but didn’t do anything about it until 2013. That was when I started my book blog (Tanya the book obsessed momma) that I had more confidence in myself. Then with the help of my two amazing best friends who are also authors themselves…they cheered me on and told me to go for it… and that’s how it all started. 
 
 
2. Are you married?  Kids?

 I’m married and have 2 children. They are 7 and 4.5. 
 
3.  What genre or genres do you like to write and read?

 I love a variety of genres. I love any type of romance (Contemporary to erotica). I also love a sweet christian book to history as well. Just depends on my mood. And paranormal…I love any type of paranormal. 

For me to write..well my debut was a contemporary and my current WIP is a paranormal…so variety. :)
