I love writing tropes and frequently use them in my series, Second Chances in Hollywood and Loves of Lakeside. I stumbled into writing when my favorite obsessions–Marvel and Supernatural–led me to writing fanfiction. With encouragement from friends, family, and my fanfiction readers, I successfully made the jump to writing original fiction.</span><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}"> </span></p><div><p><span data-contrast="none" lang="EN-US">When I'm not writing, I work as an admin assistant, crochet, binge-watch my favorite TV shows and movies, and spend time with my three children, my dogs, and my husband.</span></p><p><span data-contrast="none" lang="EN-US"><br></span></p><p><span data-contrast="none" lang="EN-US">Q + A</span></p><h4><span data-contrast="none" lang="EN-US">What inspired you to write this book?</span></h4><p><span data-contrast="none" lang="EN-US"></span><span data-contrast="none" lang="EN-US">I was inspired to write </span><span data-contrast="none" lang="EN-US"><em>Run Away</em></span><span data-contrast="none" lang="EN-US"><em> Home</em> by a trip to my home state of Montana.
