What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write She Steals My Breath?
Lately, I’ve been at a point in my life where I really wanted a story where the hero was, indeed, a very muscular and handsome hero, but also a very kind hero. The Native American Medicine Man could be such a person. If the man were to be a true medicine man, he understood his power came from God, or whatever it was in his own language that he called God. Because of this, they had to adhere to a very strict code of ethics, and part of that code was kindness.
If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of She Steals My Breath, what would they be?
“You Raise Me Up.”
What’s your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?
Romance to both questions. I enjoy all sub-genres of Romance. But, my heart is particularly drawn to Historical, Native American, Romance.
What books are on your TBR pile right now?
Adolf Hungry Wolf; and “Blackfeet Tales of Glacier National Park,” by James Willard Schultz
What scene in your book was your favorite to write?
I think the very beginning scene in chapter one, where the hero and heroine first meet each other and speak to each other in sign language.
Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)
Not really, although I might take this as a suggestion and try to adopt some training pattern of one kind or another.
Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?
Upon thinking about this, perhaps it might be that the real path to spiritual enlightenment is a very narrow path. One would do well to read about the philosophy of the Lakota Medicine Man, Fools Crow, and that one has to be strong to resist the temptation to commit an evil act.
If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?
Again, I had to ponder this for a bit. And I think it might be this: that there was, and still is, a lot to be learned about these ways of life that might be passing away under the thrust of “civilization.”
