What is the favorite book you remember as a child?

I read The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings when I was 10 and fell in love with them.

Tell us about your current book in 10 words.

It answers, "How do I get him to marry me?"

E-Reader or print? and why?

E-reader. It stays open without my having to hold it open!

One book at a time or multiples?

I edit books as well as read for fun, so I keep my pleasure reading to one book at a time.

When do you do most of your reading?

Pleasure reading is my reward for writing or editing so many pages. I take four reading breaks every day, for half an hour at a time.

Favorite place to read?

I read in my recliner.

Do you loan your books?

I do loan my print books. I haven't loaned any e-books yet.

How do you keep your books organized?

I wish I knew how to organize my ebooks on my Kindle. My print books are shelved in order in their series, and each series is in the order I started reading it.

Re-reader or not?

I do re-read my favorite books. I have read the Twilight series 10 times. That is a personal record.

What would make you not finish a book?

I finish fewer free e-books than I don't finish. I stop reading if I get bored, offended, disgusted, or otherwise feel I'm not having fun reading a book.

MEET THE AUTHOR

When Scott asked me to be his girlfriend, I surprised him by saying, "No." We were on the phone, as we were every night. I could tell he was hurt, but since we were on the phone and not together in person, we had to talk, and that was a good thing.

I explained, "I'm 30 years old. I've already had the last boyfriend I am ever going to have. In the future, I am going to have a husband, not a boyfriend."

He surprised me by taking this in stride. "I understand," he said. "You do realize I am in the Navy and all that entails?"

"I was born in the Navy!" This was true. My dad was in the Navy.

Four months later, he took me on a date to the top of the Space Needle in Seattle.

He passed me a little black velvet box under the table, and whispered:

"Babe, will you marry me?"

"Do you mean it?"

Yes, that's what I said. Not very romantic, was I?
