What got me into journalism and history at the same time? Hint – An old friend of my grandfather’s and his crazy stories.

What legendary horse inspired my first “real” novel?

What WWII author tucked me under her wing and answered all my annoying questions via Facebook and email? Two years later, she’s still my idol! 🙂

What book changed my outlook on writing, characters and the meaning of book clubs? Hint – it’s not my typical genre. And the movie comes out March 23, 2012. (Yes, I’m counting down the days.)

Finally – what blog series did I start in 2010 that I’m still continuing to this day? Hint – it goes beyond the plot of a book and digs into the story behind the story. 🙂
