I have 4 wonderful children who have all grown up and left home I have four grandchildren so far.

FIONA what is your beautiful dogs name???

His name is Fly and he is 18 year old Collie Cross.

1- I know you are a poet… but what made you want to start interviewing Authors???

I wanted to find out more about the authors I knew and not just what was written on the back of their books

I want to find out things people might not know like what they like to eat, hobbies ect.

And I have been very lucky most authors are very happy to be interviewed by me , I hope it helps get their name out there and more people reading their books.

I have posted 2461 interviews so far and looking to hit 2500 soon

I am also about to start volunteering at the local hospice which I am looking forward to 😀

 

3- When and why did you begin writing?

I wrote my first poem for fathers day when I was ten years old for a compaction

Which I won first place.

Here is the poem I did for my dad.

Hero

 You are my hero, Dad

You’re my secure foundation.
When I think of you, I’m filled with love
And fond appreciation.
You make me feel protected;
I’m sheltered by your care.
You’re always my true friend; and Dad,
When I need you, you’re always there.
You have a place of honor
Deep within my heart.
You’ve been my superhero, Dad,
Right from the very start.

Never have I, I write poems as it helps get what I am feeling on to paper.

I Found it helped when I had depression many years ago

Too many to pick
10- If you had to choose, which writer would you consider a mentor?

Far too many to pick there is so many great writers out there

But I did love Rabbi Burns…

This was written when I was in my early teens for my childhood sweet heart

 

First kiss

 

Here,
now.
Will it be tonight?
Here,
beneath the
smoky moonlight?
Will he?
Will I?
He smiles.
Oh my.
Oh.
My.

He leaves with a wink
and I wave goodbye.

 

 

In God We Place

 

In God we place our trust

For He will never let us down

 

In God we place our heart

For He will never break it

 

In God we place our soul

For He will never destroy it

 

In God we place our body

For He will never abuse it

 

In God we place our word

For He will never deny it

 

In God we place our love

For He will always love us without question

 

For He is our Father and no one will love us like him

For He asks for nothing in return but our love
