I was able to ask Dominique a few questions.  Thank you so much for taking  a few minutes to chat with me Dominique.  It is a pleasure to have you here at my blog today.

BK:  What inspired you to pen your first title?

DW:  I wanted to inspire others. I felt a calling that my writings should inspire others. With that, I wrote and published my first book “Inspire Me Young” and dedicated it to someone I lost a few years before.

  

BK:  How long have you been writing?

DW: Wow, I’ve been writing since I was a young girl but seriously writing for about seven years now.

BK:  What was the hardest part about writing this particular novel?

DW:  Writing The Tension Reliever Volume was difficult because I was revealing a side of me I never allowed others to truly see. I felt for so many years that I had to censor ME and when I decided to put out a second volume to the Tension Reliever, I felt this was the time to bring the other me out. I’d been through a lot in 2010 and it came pouring out into my writings.

  

BK:  Have any dreams been realized as a result of your writing?

DW:  Yes, that somehow some way, I inspire others. It could be my drive to be the best, my inspiration for helping others or simply my love for writing. I find that in everything I do, I’m inspiring someone in some area of their life and it’s a dream for me to be able to inspire people that way.

BK:  Where do you hope to take your writing in the future?

DW:  -I’d love to be a best seller, travel around the world to meet various people and continue to inspire people through my writings.

BK:  What advice do you have for writer's just starting out?

DW:  Trust yourself, believe in you and your work, be your number one cheerleader and never ever give up!!!

BK:  Anything else you would like to share with us today?......

DW:  Thank you so much for taking the time to learn more about me and thanks for hosting me on this tour!
