Tell us a little about yourself. I was born and raised near St. Louis, Missouri. My faith, humor, and love of history influence my writing. I currently live in Southern California with my husband, Robert, and two children.
What was your motivation behind this project? I wrote this book for my children. I wanted them to know, without a doubt, that God is real. It's a message I want all children to know.
What do you hope folks will gain from this project? There's something for everyone: humor, hair-raising excitement, and a good dose of time travel thrown in the mix, as well as a strong biblical message. By including the Scopes Trial, an actual event, I was able to bring in a bit of history and confront an important issue that is still relevant today: creation versus evolution.
Who are your influences, sources of inspiration or favorite authors / artists? I love books - always have. As a child, I would read under the blankets with a flashlight. Some of my favorite authors were C.S. Lewis, Laura Ingalls Wilder and O. Henry. On the weekends, I enjoy perusing flea markets and yard sales for old books to add to my collection.
Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know: "A well-turned time-travel adventure story with a biblical edge." Kirkus Indie
