A Conversation with Denise
2. Why do you share such personal details about your life?
I believe that true connection comes from authenticity. By delving deep into my own experiences and emotions, I hope to resonate with other women who might be going through similar situations. My goal is to create a sense of community and reassure others that they're not alone in their struggles.
3. Is it really possible for midlife women to reinvent themselves?
Absolutely! I'm living proof that reinvention is possible at any age. The key is having a strong desire to pursue the dreams you may have set aside while raising a family, nurturing a marriage, or developing a career. With determination and action, midlife can be a launchpad for exciting new chapters in life.
1. What inspired you to become an author?
My journey with writing began at age 8 when I wrote my first book for a class assignment. At 13, I discovered journaling, which fueled my passion for writing. Now, I'm fulfilling a lifelong dream of becoming an author by sharing my stories and experiences with others.
4. How do you balance your writing aspirations with your personal life?
Balancing my writing with personal responsibilities, especially caring for Jeff, has been challenging. I've learned to seize writing opportunities when Jeff is away or resting. My strong desire to fulfill my writing dream drives me to maximize these moments. It's about finding pockets of time and using them efficiently, proving that with determination, we can pursue our passions even amidst life's demands.
5. How do you hope your books impact your readers?
I want to impact readers in two ways:
1. To inspire women to resurrect and pursue long-forgotten dreams, empowering them to embrace new possibilites, and
2. To create a sense of community. I want my readers to feel understood and supported, offering both practical advice and emotional support.
