First, I would like to thank Bella Putt, a fellow blogger as well as a fellow Y-duber for this amazing opportunity. 

Bella provided me with 11 amazing questions that I can't wait to answer. So let's get on with the questions.  

 1. Where is you favorite place to write? Why?

I have two places I love to write, my bed, and outside. My bed is where I write if I have an idea and I want to expand on it. When I am in need of inspiration I retreat outside and write.

 2. What is your favorite book? What makes this book stand out to you among all the other books you have read? 

There are so many to choose from. Since I have to choose  I would have to say "Raiders of the sea" it is the first book in the viking quest series written by Lois Johnson. I can relate to the characters in away that I have never been able to relate to in other books. It also shows the power of faith when you are struggling. 

 3. If you could meet any author, dead or alive, who would it be? Why do you choose this specific author?

Emily Dickinson: she has been one of my many heroines. Her poetry is also what inspired my love of poetry. 

 4. Where would you live if you could live anywhere in the world other than where you live right now?

Switzerland. Last year I had the opportunity to spend five weeks there it was amazing experience. 

 5. What is your favorite thing to do (besides write)? 

Baking/cooking

 6. What is your favorite Bible verse, and how has it impacted your life?

This bible verse is my daily reminder that I am a child of God, and he will help me with my burdens even if he doesn't take them away. 

 7. If you could become famous for something other than writing, what would it be?

Making a difference in the world. 

 8. What is your favorite thing to write about?

I enjoy writing about many different types of things. I don't have a specific favorite thing to write about. 

 9. What is your favorite kind of music? Which artist in that genre do you primarily listen to? Do you like to listen to this music when you write? 

my jam. I love it all the way around. I have five favorite genres: Contemporary Christian, Old Country, Celtic, Rockin' Roll, and Folk.
I don't really have a primary artist in any of of my favorite genres. 
I do not usually listen to music while I write, I find it distracting. There are on some occasions that I do though. I

 10. What is your favorite thing about blogging?

Getting to share my writing. 

 11. If you could share one tip with young writers who are struggling, what would it be?

Write consistently, read a lot (especially in the genre you like to write in), don't be afraid to share your writing, and ask for constructive criticism. Those four things will make you a better writer.
