The first book that I published was Operation Homecoming Queen. It started, not as a novel, but as an example for a student who was struggling with the concept of creating a scary scene. In fact, the scene where she finds herself in the rain looking at her reflection in a mirror, was an example of how to set a mood in writing.
One of the biggest enjoyments that I have is to share bits and pieces of my writing with my students. I love the idea of teaching the creative process, and of showing them how small changes make a difference.
