N. N. Light’s Book Heaven is celebrating its tenth anniversary. Isn’t that wonderful?
I’d like to introduce romance author Maria Imbalzano.
Question 1: Where were you ten years ago in relation to your author/writer career? If you weren’t writing, what were you doing?
My second book, Dancing in the Sand, was published ten years ago (my first book was published in 2013). I was still working full time as a lawyer, but writing whenever I could. My tenth book, Island Detour just came out last year.
Question 2: Looking back on the past ten years, how has your writing grown?
I would like to think that I’m a much better writer than I was ten years ago. I’ve learned a lot and continue to go to seminars, read how-to books, and study authors I love. Life long learning is key to any endeavor.
Question 3: What are you doing now? How many books have you published?
I just sent my next book (the fourth and last of the Sworn Sisters series) to my publisher. Fingers crossed that I get a contract. While I’m waiting to hear, I just started the second book of the Sunrise Island series. When I say just started, I mean I’m on page 5. But I did do an entire in-depth outline, so I’m ready to let my fingers fly over my keyboard. I just hope my brain keeps up.
