Author Pen Name: Stephanie Barmann
CA: What genre(s) do you write? Why do you write the stories that you write?
SB: General Romance, but I also tend to play around with other genres. I really love history and would love to write a non-fiction eventually.
CA: When did you first realize you wanted to be a writer?
SB: I have always wanted to be a writer. It started in third grade when I was in a program called young authors. The teacher was Mrs. McMillan and she was great, she really influenced my passion for writing.
CA: Who or what was your inspiration for writing?
SB: I love Charles Dickens. I find after reading one of his books there are no questions at the end. I guess in a lot of ways I now try to do that myself. I read through my story and if I ask well what happened next, I know I'm not done.
CA: What is your work schedule like when you're writing?
SB: lol I have to break my writing up throughout the day since I am also a stay at home mom of five children. I tend to write the most at night after they are all in bed.
CA: I am a stay at home mom of one! How in the world do you handle 5 and write?!!
CA: Your book is about to be sent into the reader world, what is one word that describes how you feel?
SB: More excited than words could ever express.
CA: What do you like to do when you're not writing?
SB: Play with my children and genealogy. I think it is important to know where you come from.
CA: How many books have you written? Which is your favorite?
SB: I have written many books, but "Bonded Souls" is by far my favorite. I absolutely fell in love with my characters and allowed them to tell me where the story was going. I cried and laughed right along with them, it was a very emotional story to write.
CA: Do you tend to base your characters on real people or are they totally from your imagination?
SB: I would say mostly imagined, with a little bit of inspiration from my friends and family.
CA: How can a reader contact you or purchase your books?
SB: freewebs.com/theremustbmore/
CA: Thanks so much for sharing a little bit of you with me and the readers this week Stephanie!
