Welcome to The Book
Keepers Blog and thank you very much for taking the time to this.
Thank you Charina for inviting me to the
Book Keeper, I am so happy to be here.
1.
What kind
of music do you listen to?
I am 53 years
old and I like a wide variety of music:
-When I am in
a nostalgic mood I tune in to the ‘70s or 80’s music and smile with thoughts
and feelings of my youth.
-If I have
music on when I write it must be classical, relaxing no Opera!
-When I feel
heartbroken if I cannot tap into Adele, I go country (great music to cry to).
-I have been known
to fall in love with movie soundtracks, and when I get hooked on one I listen
and listen until I can sing along.
-I have a 14
year old son, and he loves Black Sabbath, The Rolling stones and what the radio
calls Alternative Rock, so I get that often in my car.
-I love Annie
Lennox, with or without the Eurhythmics, The Beatles, One Republic, Natasha Bedingfield and oh so
many more.

If you
could eat any type of food while you are writing, what will it be? Why?
I love food, I
love to cook, I love to eat, and I love fun cooking show like Chopped and Worst
Cooks Ever! I do not ‘eat and write’ but I do interrupt my writing to cook and
eat.
At one point I
did have m&ms next to me, but it was getting much too fattening so I drink
water, tea or coffee; and just WRITE! I still gain weight because I love to
eat!
3.
What is
your favorite TV show and why?
I have two
favorite TV shows right now, Elementary and The Good Wife.
Both shows are
fun and unique in each episode, full of surprises; one with juicy murders and
the other with legal cases and politics. At the same time they form a storyline
that hooks you and you want to follow the thread of how the characters develop
and how their relationships change and grow.
4.
If you
could write any book, even if he has been written already, which one will it
be? Why?
I feel that I
am a good and diverse writer, so I take it this question is about a book I know
I would not be capable of writing.
It would have
to be a book that creates an entire ‘other world’ setting, be it Sci Fi or
Fantasy. I just cannot imagine creating a world like that and I have read some
FANTASTIC books that do this in such a Brilliant way!
5.
Five
things you’ll take with you to a deserted island?
I am guessing
part of it is essential survival, if not change the fire-starter for a great
set of color drawing pencils and the fishing pole for a fabulous telescope!
1.
A Solar powered e-reader with
thousands of wonderful books downloaded.
2.
A Hammock, the kind with a
light-weave that looks small but can open comfortably to lie long-wise or
sideways.
3.
Sketch pad. (Will draw with
charred wood from fire).
4.
Something to make a fire.
5.
A fishing Pole. (To catch
protein for all the great fruits and veggies I would find in my deserted
island).
Thank you very much for being with us. Good luck with
your book.
