I am who I am, and that's CC Wyatt, the novelist who jumped into the young adult arena not too long ago with The Ferret Books series. The two-book series has secret ingredients for young readers and adults alike to devour and feel satisfied when finished, if not left hungry for more.
I like designing things, have a degree in business, and often find myself teaching the business of life, but I must admit, my role as a writer resonates who I am to a tee.
As to writing, I'm meticulous when it comes to stringing words together, which are specifically prescribed to entertain in the most unique way. Performing magic on paper is what I call it. And oftentimes I find a goldmine in movies, music, and of course books to help in performing such magic.
Unlike most authors, my joy of reading came later in life. When it did, it was as if I'd been put under a spell to devour books. Then the images started coming, fussy little images that wouldn't go away, especially at night. It wasn't until they drove me stir-crazy that I finally realized my desire to read had evolved into something else. Well of course I wanted to blast them to kingdom come at first, those pesty little images--so I could get to sleep. But thank goodness I couldn't; soon I got the whim to pick up a pen.
...A list of my favorite things (orthings to do):
Epic movies:movies like Selma (all-time best MLK movie), Roots, Gone With the Wind, The Sound of Music (Do, a deer, a female deer…), The Ten Commandments, Pearl Harbor, Avatar (excited about Avator 2 in 2020!)…to name a few.
And not-so-Epic movies,though epic in their own rights: movies like August Rush, The Body Guard, Waiting to Exhale, Toy Story, Beaches (cry, cry every time I watch this movie), The Twilight Zone (watch the New Year's Marathon every year)….Honestly, I see no end to this list.
And on this day, June 19, 2019, I am adding: Oh my god I miss Game of Thrones!
Traveling:My favorite spot Florida. No wonder it’s the setting for Ferret
Decorating: I could spend a whole day touring model homes collecting ideas.
Cereal: A bowl of Cheerios especially, and with almond milk poured over it, it’s quite a breakfast treat. Shopping:I love shopping for odds and ends, all while trying to beat the heat.
I live in Arizona with family and friends, and of course with Chewy, my adorable little Yorkie-Poo.
