Favorite place to read a book: My couch! This is also where I do my best writing.

The moment I knew I wanted to become an author: I've been writing short stories on the family computer since I was in elementary school. I knew I wanted to be a published author the moment I read an article in the Houston Chronicle about a twelve-year-old who had gotten published. I can't remember that author now, but I thought to myself, "If he can do it, I can do it."

Hardback, paperback, ebook or audiobook: There’s just something so special about hardcovers…

The last book I read: Oona Out of Order by Margarita Montimore

Number one on my bucket list: To get published was my biggest item, so now I have to dream bigger!
