The authors of Inspired by Life…and Fiction are offering a new weekly post featuring some of our favorite things. We hope you enjoy getting to know a little more about us—and we’d love to hear your answers to these “favorites” questions in the comments below.
Favorite Holiday: Christmas! I love it all. The decorations, the songs, the parties, Christmas day brunch in our pajamas, and the fact that my older kids come home for the holiday.
Favorite Vacation Spot: Too many to name, so I’ll chose one from this past year. My husband and I road-tripped through the redwood forests of northern California in June. It was so astonishingly beautiful there that it inspired me to set my next book in that region.
Favorite Dessert: I may be the only IBLF author who eats gluten free/dairy free, so I’ll share my favorite Paleo chocolate chip recipe here. I have a sweet tooth and have made this recipe (courtesy of Paleo Running Momma) many times.

I love this feature! And love my new books and swag. Thank you so much!
Looking forward to your new book that will be set in northern California. Kristin Hannah set a number of her books in the Pacific Northwest. And I loved your Bradford sisters books set in Washington. Though I have visited my daughter who has lived in southern California for 30 years, numerous times, this East Coast lady enjoys learning about the Pacific Northwest.
“this East Coast lady enjoys learning about the Pacific Northwest” I’m glad to hear that, Betty! I was born and raised in southern California but attended college in Texas and have lived in Dallas since the late 90’s. Like you, though, I always enjoy learning about the Pacific Northwest. There’s just something about that region that calls to my imagination!
Hurrah for California, my native State and yours!!!
Love seeing your favorites, Becky. I love those redwoods too. So majestic!
