Interview with Author Michelle Alstead
Tell us a little bit about your book.
This book was inspired by my experiences as a single mother of a son with Autism Spectrum Disorder. The reality of my experience was too difficult to write realistically so I threw in some romance to make the story more intriguing.
Have you published before?
Yes, this is my 9th novel.
Are you currently working on anything else?
I just published my 10th novel and I’m quickly trying to finish book #11.
What is your favorite writing snack?
I don’t eat while I write.
What gets you in the mood to write?
Bursts of inspiration. When I’m really into a story and I can feel the characters come alive, I’m motivated to write.
Who is your favorite character and why?
Drew Mendoza is my favorite character because he’s the one person who always says what everyone else is thinking.
Favorite book of all time?
Jonathan Livingston Seagull
I think breakfast says a lot about a person, what is your perfect breakfast?
Egg sausage sandwich with a coffee
Do you have a favorite period of time that you like to write about or would like to live?
The 90’s would be my favorite time period because for me it was a period of coming of age and innocence.
Please tell us in one sentence why we should read your book!
This story describes what it’s like to have a child with special needs and really seeks to raise awareness and promote compassion.
