Writing has always been a creative outlet in my life. It was common for me at a young age, to take off on my bicycle looking for a place I could call my own within the serenity of nature. I would sit down on the grass by a stream, and pull out the notepad and pencil from my backpack to write poetry. Attempting to express the inspiration of the day, my thoughts became as fluid as the water trickling down before me. Sometimes I would write short stories. Later, I discovered that putting words to music brought additional life to my thoughts. Still an amateur at writing but it didn't matter. Writing was an escape into the love I felt in my heart. I wrote purely for enjoyment. I finally sought out to make my dream of writing a novel come true. Even given the time restraints within our lives, my husband encouraged me to write my book. As a first-time author, I can tell you that writing SOULMATES has been a joyous adventure. Often my writing process begins with prayer. Although laced with science fiction, I hope people can shake out the treasures of truth within my novel. I want SOULMATES to make people happy and allow them to believe not only in romance, but most importantly to believe in God and the power of prayer.
