Oh my goodness, that’s a very tough question. In The Thorn Keeper, I absolutely fell in love with Madame, but my overall trio of favorite characters are the three kids in my yet-to-be published novel, Just the Way You Are. Madame has a tremendous about of pizazz. The kids are some of my best writing of giving each child a unique personality. I absolutely love them.
What are you reading right now?
Two books. Amy Leigh Simpsons’s upcoming release, In His Grip, and JoJo Moyes historical novel, The Girl You Left Behind. Very different books but great writing.
Which of your characters do you secretly have a crush on?
Christopher “Wes” Harrison from my yet-to-be-published novel, Just the Way You Are. He has a Mr. Knightley likeability with a touch of the Mr. Darcy aloofness, and his own swoony-worthy charm.

Favorite season?
Summer! I guess I’ve always thought about summer time as vacation time. School is out, the weather is hot and summer just reminds me of fun times! Would you rather go to the future or go to the past?
That’s easy, future. I’ve often wondered what my life will be like in the future. I’ve often wondered if I’d ever be able to have a full-time writing career. I also wonder what my son will be like as an adult.
What’s one thing you must have/do in the morning?
I must have a huge cup of coffee first thing in the morning! I drink mine with honey, cinnamon and creamer.

First off, I wanted to let you all know I'm having some issues with my blog and comments. *Ugh* It's not just me and they've got people working on it, but still it's pretty frustrating. Your comments aren't lost--I promise--and I can still see them when I'm not signed into Google. But...when I am, they are gone. It makes it impossible for me to reply to you all - though I have been reading the comments and appreciate them SO much!All of that to say, I went and double checked that I got everyone's name who entered last week's giveaway so even if you can't see your comment on the post, I saw you (in a not creepy way).
Thanks for your patience! I may just start using Rafflecopter exclusively to make it easier...I know that some who don't have Goggle may enjoy this better :)
Anyway, here is the winner of Annette's book from last week's post:
