When I started writing my first book the main character was modeled after someone very near and dear to me, my daughter. Yes there is a lot of Gina in Emma. Like Emma Gina is an amazing young woman.
There have been times however when that has caused a problem. You see Emma took on a life of her own and started to develop her own personality traits. The other problem was that as a mom I can and do often see Emma as I do my own child. In a way all the characters that a writer comes up with is their children, good and bad. You would also be surprised to know that our characters do talk to us. Yes I know it sounds crazy and I even had my friend, who happens to be a doctor, a little worried. Actually she was a lot worried and began to think that she might have to talk to my husband and Gina about me getting serious professional help. I'm talking real serious, the type that involves locked doors. She did her research and found this to be quite normal evidently, I was glad to hear it because I was right there with her on wondering if I needed serious help. Of course she didn't tell me any of this until she had her facts. I wonder if she thought I was maybe even dangerous. You have to understand she has read all my books God love her. Anyway she was satisfied that I was no crazier than I was before I started writing so all was good. Anyway back to Emma. Emma, as well as Grayson decided they needed their own facebook pages. They wanted to reach out to people outside the covers of a book and that is what they are now doing. The thing is they need your help. Please spread the word and if you haven't read one of my books please do so.
