Picking up the
Pieces looks like a great
self-help guide. Any plans to write
additional books?
Yes, I’m glad that you mentioned that. God
gave me this book title as a self-help guide to minister to people in 2017. I
was sitting down putting a puzzle together and God spoke to me that he wanted
to use this book as puzzle piece to help people to find healing, deliverance
and renewal in their lives. I like to think of it as both a self-help book and
as a religion book because its God bringing healing through the words on paper
to others. There are so many people that have gone through pain in their relationships
and have not fully understood the purpose of the people that they have
connected with in the past. As I was writing the book, I also went through a
healing process because I had experienced a lot of loss in my life and in my
relationships. I do plan to write additional books as a sequel to Picking Up
the Pieces in the future. The next book that I am currently working on is
called, Accelerate. I have written three other books prior to Picking up the
Pieces called, Hello My Name is Millennial, A More Simple Life,
and The Majestical Land of Twinville.
What will
readers get out of your book?
My goal for this book is for
readers to experience the true power of healing and deliverance in their walk
with Jesus and to experience healing and deliverance in their relationships
with others. I hope that when people read this book that they have a better
understanding and meaning of why they have the relationships in their lives
that they have and how to properly reach the connectors in their lives. I also
pray that when people finish reading this book that they are changed. Its an
interactive book so I hope that people do not see it as being just a book to
read and add to their shelf but as one that you have to really sit down and
write out what happened in your relationships and use the puzzle pieces to
properly connect with the results.
What
inspired you when writing Picking up the
Pieces?
God
inspired me when I was writing Picking up the Pieces, he told me that it would
touch a lot of lives and bring change to many people. He told me that even
though this is a popular title it will not be as other self-help books, but it
will be one that ministers to the hearts of people and evokes true change and
deliverance in their lives.
When
did you decide to become a writer?
I was called to be a writer
at the age of seven years old. I was born with the gift of writing in my hands.
I used to write books on paper and then staple them together when I was in
elementary school and in middle school and I would sell them to my friends. I
also used to write poetry and comic books. I have always had a love and passion
for writing. I found that writing was indeed one of my gifts and that God had
truly used my hands to be a pen of a ready writer. I noticed that I could write
a book in a day, week, and in two weeks with very little effort.
When
writing Picking up the
Pieces did anything stand out as particularly challenging?
When I was writing the book,
I noticed a lot of warfare and challenges that started to happen in my
relationships that were very challenging.
How
did you come up with the concepts and ideas in Picking up the Pieces?
God gave me the concept and
idea of Picking up the Pieces from a puzzle piece.
What
do you like to do when not writing?
When I am not writing, I
enjoy reading, doing puzzles, crossword puzzles, going to church, praying,
traveling, and inspiring others.
