I am a fan of what you do! Have you always been a writer and if not, what made you turn to writing?
I have always been a writer I’ll say. I started writing as a child as a way to channel my imagination, and as a quiet bookworm who preferred my own company, it came naturally to me to spend hours alone, scribbling. I continued writing till I got my first proper job, as a marketer in a bank, and became too busy. I started writing again, and this time more career-oriented, when I got married, moved to a new country, again, and decided I preferred being a stay-at-home mother.
Last year you published your debut novel A Heart To Mend and it has done really well and broken barriers. How was the book-writing process and what did it feel like to have your name in print?
It was a really interesting process. When I started, I did not immediately know I would self-publish. It was exciting starting up my blog, and getting comments and feedback from people. I had joined a writing meet-up group as a way of becoming social, but their critique also fired up my writing instinct. As I read and followed diverse media sites, I came across the idea of publishing myself and when I felt the time was right? I released the book. I felt really emotional and it was satisfying to see the book for the first time, I had to read it all again so it could sink in that I was now an author.
You seem to have an enviable drive and hunger to succeed as a writer. How do you enforce discipline to write and complete projects?

What future plans (that you can share) should we look out for, concerning your writing career?
Well, it’s no secret that I’ll be publishing more books. Some I will publish myself and others, maybe through other publishers. My second book is titled ‘A Love Rekindled‘, and it will be released this March through CreateSpace, Amazon’s book printers.
