1. Could you tell us a little bit about yourself?

Currently I wear two hats: one as co-founder of Miller Mosaic online marketing and the other as a fiction and nonfiction author.  The two hats frequently merge into one hat when I do online marketing for my own books.

2. Describe your book ‘Lt. Commander Mollie Sanders’ in 30 words or less. 

Navy officer must use all her training and wits to help save the Port of Los Angeles and to figure out what is really going on during a submarine assignment.

3. What was the hardest part of writing your book?

Walking a fine line between portraying a Navy officer who is extremely talented yet not making her into a superhero.

4. What books have had the greatest influence on you?

I particularly like Martin Cruz Smith's novels for the suspense as well as attention to details.

6. How do you spend your time when you are not writing?

Working on Internet marketing for clients and reading fiction and nonfiction books.
