Playing in the Rain
When the effects of a hypnosis inducing drug fade, April slowly begins a conscious awakening. Memories of her past are unclear and she has no recollection of her identity or her whereabouts.
As the days slip by, April realizes there is more to life than existing when she is introduced to an occupant who does just that—her sister. The more she learns about her environment the more she wants to escape.
Will April remember her past, her sister? Will she have the courage to leave? And if she does, where will she go?
Experience through April’s eyes her struggle to remember and her determination to escape in this sci-fi, post-apocalyptic, suspense story.

Hi Sandra! Its great having you stop by for a quick chat. Tell us about you. What do you love most about Writing?
What I love most is that no matter what ideas I might have my characters are the ones who direct the story. They surprise me every time.
I love when they do that! I like to tell their story, using 2nd person. Do you have a preferred POV that you write from and why?
Both of my books are written in first person (though Promised Soul does have a couple of chapters written in third). I like the way first person draws readers into a story and makes them feel like they are a part of it.
First person is something I haven’t tried yet. Maybe one day. Makes me wonder, does it drive how your write….and Do your characters dictate what or how your write in any way?
Absolutely! I have a quote that I use on my business cards and a few other things. “Only my characters truly know what’s happening—I just hold the pen.”
I wrote that quote because this is how it is for me.
Oh thats so true…I never know where they will lead me. Im often just holding on for the ride! Playing in the Rain sounds like a marvelous, page-turner! Where can we find it?
