Thank you for this interview, Shay. Can you tell us a little about yourself and how long you’ve been writing?

The short version is that I was born and raised in Paris, Texas, I’m married to a wonderful husband named Terry, have two-step sons Braxton and Terrance, a 16 year old daughter Ariole, and am a multiple-small business owner.  I also hold a Bachelor’s degree in English and a Master’s degree in Education Administration. I have been writing since I was a little girl.

I had many growing pains as a child. My grandmother raised me and encouraged me to write to Jesus any time I needed to talk to someone. I would write Him and bury the letters in our front yard, thinking upon deterioration the message would float to Him and He would answer. I am delighted to say, “He did answer and continues to do so today.”

At what point in your life did you make up your mind you were going to become a published author?

The answer to that question surprises some people because I knew I was going to be a published author around age thirteen. I have had a list of goals since then that change from year to year but becoming a published author was always on the list.
