Q: How did you come up with the heroine for Out of the Dark?

The heroine for the novel comes from personal experience. In the 1980's, I worked with a blind woman who ran the department for disabled students at a local community college. I admired how much she could accomplish in a day. While my heroine has limited sight. I wanted to challenge of writing about that experience.

Q: How did you choose the setting for Out of the Dark?

Ainsworth is an Anglo-Saxon name originating in the 900's, having its own coat of arms with the motto "Courage Without Fear". That is why I made the dominant culture Anglo-Saxon for my heroine.
