Much of your book takes place in the mountains. Do you have a certain location that your family likes to go to camp or recreate? How long have you been going there?
Yes, we love to head up Payson canyon and camp at a pretty little spot near the lakes. My in-laws have been going there for decades and I love to go with them because they have a well-stocked trailer that has a bathroom, and you know, bathrooms are kind of nice to have in the woods.
If you were going to hold a clandestine farm in the woods, what would you grow there, and why? Hmm, how about money trees? Really, I love gardening, but my garden is so small—not really, but when compared to my mom’s ½ acre garden it looks small. I’d love to have more gardening space to plant a bunch of zucchini and banana squash, so maybe I should look into this idea a bit more, huh?
You should try trellising on your back fence, I bet you could fit in a lot more. What other writing projects do you have coming up? I just finished writing/editing book one of a new “Wedding Planner Mystery” series. I had so much fun writing this novel and getting to know the characters. The title is
Diamond Rings are Deadly Things and it’s set in Sun Valley, Idaho near where I grew up.
That sounds like a fun story idea. I can't wait to see it.
