Why did you choose this story for
the anthology?
I
actually wrote the first draft for this story several years ago. It had a
slightly different plot with gaps. The bones were there, but I wasn’t happy
with the details. Then, I saw the call for submissions to this anthology and I
wondered if I could make it work. I pulled it out of the drawer, fell in love
with the story all over again, and the holes filled in themselves.
I see you write a lot of
nonfiction and romance. Is WIN a romance as well?
No.
While I may choose to continue David’s story one day, and explore his future
relationships, this tale focuses on the society driven by technology in a
parallel universe.
Several of your stories,
including WIN, have centered on the lives of teachers. Is this on
purpose?
It’s
not really on purpose. I’ve been a teacher most of my life. So, I suppose it’s
natural for me to approach things as a teacher, and therefore my characters
become teachers of a sort as well.

Tagline:
The connection is everything.
Blurb:
Seventeen year-old David Masters has grown up in almost
complete isolation, despised by those around him. He is smart, determined, and
compassionate. Now, an act of terrorism threatens the lives of millions. Can
David help the society who shunned his very existence? Or is all hope for
humanity lost? Find out in “WIN”.
