Interviewing Author Ulanda A. Brinson

Interviewing Author  Ulanda A. Brinson Q1. Tell us about yourself. What are your favorite books to read? A. A bit about me:  Born in 1983 to Apostle Dr. Samuel and Maxine Brinson. The eldest and only girl of five, I learned very early on that I had a passion for God and for helping, encouraging, and uplifting people.  God has blessed me with many gifts and talents as a singer, songwriter, author, poet, speaker and much more. Over the years it has truly been my honor to serve others nationally and internationally, working with many churches, schools, groups, and organizations in helping and consulting and by assessing and creating plans for strategic restructuring to grow their impact and enrich lives.   In my younger years, I was a massive reader, one of the top readers in my grade school, even becoming a part of the Mayor's book club. In more recent years, I have been more intentional about studying and creating than reading for pleasure.

I’ve had about five titles each for my stories until settling on a theme for the series—"Sons of the Shenandoah”, which helped me title the stories in it, The Abolitionist’s Daughter (released Aug 2018),

Interviewing Author Renee Heiss Q1. Tell us about yourself. What are your favorite books to read? A. I am a retired Family Consumer Sciences teacher, with a focus on Child Development.  I enjoy reading mysteries and adventure novels at night before going to bed.  However, during the day, I mostly read nonfiction – subjects that broaden my interests on any topic.  Almost all of my reading is done digitally. Q2. Where did the inspiration to write come from? A.  I found that many children become agitated while the parent is preparing dinner.  It’s the witching hour - They’re hungry, they’re getting no attention, and they can’t seem to find the right thing to occupy their time.  I decided that if kids had a designated task that helped with the preparation, life would be easier for everyone.  The key to the success of the Chef Cappy books is that each child has a designated task, which eliminates most arguments about whose turn it is to stir the biscuit batter!
