The Story Behind the Story




Face to Face: 


This book came about with the growth of social media and the vast amount of people meeting online. After hearing sad stories and heartwarming tales of love and marriage, a few characters popped into my head demanding page time.

Face to Face is a mixture of real events from real people. About some bad experiences and a few good ones of couples meeting online and finally meeting in person.

My biggest question was how much conflict should there be, and what type. I was worried the length of the story would limit what problems they could face, but once I let the characters tell the story, the conflicts magically appeared. (I wish writing conflict was that simple all the time.)

I hope those reading the book will find the characters believable and the conflict real to life.

Happy reading!
