Q 1. when did you decide you were going to write a book?

A. I have two books on the go at any one time. This year I got one highly polished for publication.

Q2.  how did you come up with the name of your books?

A. The names are usually related to the main character or a theme I am exploring. FLAT SQUIRREL is about Duggan, a flying squirrel. They're already kinda "flat" when they fly, but the name also hints at the theme, which is when life flattens people, they get up and try again. That's the idea, anyway.

A. Ten years full time, and part-time all my life.


Q5. What advice would you give other authors?

A. Write something every day. Form a good writing habit, if you feel like it or not. Don't wait for The Muse, because she's not reliable!

A.  My Facebook writer's page is @fionafaithwriter. I have a blog ffross.com Duggan has his own twitter account and Instagram, @flatsquirrel2 FLAT SQUIRREL is on Amazon.

Q7.do you plan on making more books in the future? 

A. Yes, I'm always writing. I plan to release a book a year from now on.

A.  I've actually written five books but they're not quite ready for publication, but they will be.

Interviewing Author  Margie Harding Q1. Tell me about your self?    A. I am a wife to Charles (47 years), momma to 5 grown children— four of which are married, with 17 grandchildren and another on the way!  I enjoy reading and writing and when I have the time, I enjoy quilting and studying all kinds of things!  I like learning!  My husband and I travel a good deal and plan to visit Alaska, the only state we haven’t been to in our married life!  I have a strong faith and believe God has given me the gift of writing for a purpose.  It took me a while to realize it, but the perspective of my writing includes writing for children with disabilities—- but not only for the children with the disability, but for the one who asks, ‘What’s wrong with my friend?’  This makes these books unique and a great resource for a classroom as a starting point for conversation. Q2. What are your favorite books to read? A. I read a lot of Christian material.  I...
