Mom's Choice Awards posted an interview with me on December 10, 2012. Imagine my surprise when I saw the twitt go out when I was at the Mesquite Festival of Books. I remembered them sending me a few questions to answer some months back but never heard a peep after. The interview shares about my inspiration, writing my award-winning book (which has won not only the Silver Mom's Choice Seal but also the 2011 Silver Quill here in Utah) and a bit about me in general.

Here is little sample: VS Grenier (or Virginia, as we like to call her) is not just a children’s book author – she’s also founder and owner of Stories For Children Publishing, LLC ; chief editor for Halo Publishing, Int ; host of several blog talk radio shows – including  The World of Ink Network: Stories for Children and The Writing Mama ; and more! She is als

“From Twilight to 50 Shades of Grey, the past few years have been full of high profile reads. Love um or hate um, you have to admit you have at least heard of them.  As Independent Authors we all dare to dream we will be next, and well let’s face it, you never know...right? With that thought I jumped on this Hop which is basically an Independent Authors game of tag. One Author posts, and then tags five other Authors, who each link back to them, and you my fair reader have hopefully just increased your to read list. Finding New and Exciting Authors you may never have found otherwise.  Some of us are still writing, others are just being released, while others have many books published. Either way, for you Book Lovers, a treasure trove awaits and I’d like to thank fellow Author Lin Floyd for tagging me to participate.” Click the links to find out about Lin Floyd’s books.
