Inspiration for writing The Power of Three
“During the covid pandemic, I toyed with the idea of writing a memoir but quickly morphed in favor of a novel allowing me the freedom to explore other universes while drawing from snippets from my past. This journey was longer, more complicated and challenging than I ever imagined. It was also the most exciting as characters I hadn’t planned on just showed up as I wrote. Four years later, a novel has emerged.
I am now ready to start the next adventure.”
