• “I want readers to think about Alva’s revelation: ‘When is there a better time to become a hero?’”

  

  Today my thanks go out to mystery author Dianne Ascroft for interviewing me about the process of creating Ignoring Alva and asking such deep, probing questions.

• “This story turned out to be much more than I expected. “

  

  I am so thrilled that Lori of Dollycass loved my book! What an honor! Ms. Khair has crafted absolutely wonderful characters in this story, and not just the two main characters.
