 |  When people discover I'm an author, they assume my books are children’s stories. A student in one of my creative writing classes once stated, “I can’t believe you write suspense. You seem so nice.”
What they don’t realize is underneath my girl-next-door façade beats the heart of a kick-butt heroine. As a young girl, I forced friends to act out scenes from my favorite adventure stories—Alice in Wonderland and the Wizard of Oz. At nine years old, I applied to be one of Charlie’s Angels. (I'm still waiting by the phone for Charlie’s call.)
These days I force my characters, instead of my friends, to act out the adventures in my head. My kick-butt heroines face heart-stopping danger and suicidal odds whether they’re bringing justice to all or simply clicking their red stilettos together to find their way home. I base my female characters on the stuff Alice, Dorothy and the Angels were made of: girl-next-door facades with the heart of a kick-butt (but always nice) heroine. |
