Author Interview – K. R. Raye @KRRaye

Tell us a bit about your family. I’m married to a wonderful guy, the whole best friend cliché, and we have two boys.

What makes you happiest?  The little things in life:  a stranger that smiles as they walk past, someone holding the door open, saying and hearing, “please” or “thank you.”

What’s your greatest character strength?  I’m persistent and patient, traits necessary for writers trying to make a living.

Why do you write?  I love writing as much as I love reading.  It’s just something I’ve always done since I was four years old.  Sometimes the easiest way to express yourself or work through the feelings you want to convey, is by writing them down first.

Have you always enjoyed writing?  Yes, I learned to read at three and write little poems by four (I wish I kept some of them now).  It’s a fun way to express feelings and emotions, try things you never considered, or create whole new worlds or alternative universes.

What motivates you to write?  I love writing as much as I love reading.  It’s just something I’ve always done.  Sometimes the easiest way to express yourself or work through the feelings you want to convey, is by writing them down first.

What writing are you most proud of? (Add a link if you like)  A love letter to my husband and no, I’m not adding a link!  J

What books did you love growing up?  As a kid I loved Beverly Cleary’s Ramona the Brave and Ramona & Beezus books.  Then I read most of the Hardy Boys, Little House on the Prairie, L. Frank Baum, and J. R. R. Tolkien series.

Who is your favorite author?  Since I love to read an eclectic mix of genres, I don’t have just one favorite author.  How could you?  Tom Clancy, Dean Koontz, Kimberla Lawson Roby, Mary Higgins Clark, and Alex Haley are just a few of my favorites.
