My First Live TV Interview!!!!
Yesterday was a very important day in the history of my life. Because yesterday was the first time I was on TV!!!! That’s right–I was interviewed by our local morning news show, CBS 6′s Virginia This Morning. I talked about the story behind my book Interrupted, my life as a writer, and the fun fact that I practiced my signature for both my driver’s license and autographing books at the same time!
Obviously, I am yet to master the art of the TV interview, but I hope I’ll get another chance to redeem myself at some point! For those of you who don’t know me in person, no, I am not usually that hyper or loud. I was really nervous! But I think that all went smoothly, in the end. I’m so blessed to have been given this opportunity!
You can find a video of the interview here!

You did a great job. I wouldn’t have known that was your first live interview. Great job.

One correction: there are those who not only twice as old as you, but more than three times as old as you who have been wanting to publish a book from way back before you were born.
But we don’t hate you. We are happy about what God is doing in your life.
