What is the aim or goal of your writing: I attribute my success to the fact that I have had the good fortune to be married to a very supportive and patient partner, and to have met the people at Greenwillow Books, who are supportive and patient, too. My work ethic is I work 5 days a week, from early morning until about noon. If I'm trying to meet a deadline I work other times too, but morning is my most productive time.

May inquiries be sent to you about doing workshops, readings: Yes
Since my family is still young, I'm not able to do a lot of traveling and speaking, but I do some.
