Interview With Karen

What/who inspired you to write Love is in the Air?

I wrote most of the books in the Adventures in Harmony series during the pandemic to entertain my three little girls. They are the main characters (Scarlett, Daphne, and Cora). In February of 2021, they asked me to write a Valentine book. They said that the King and Queen (a.k.a. my husband and myself) should go to a fancy restaurant while Ali babysat them. Ali was our nanny for years. Nowadays, she just babysits the girls on an occasional date night, but mainly is a staple in any of our family events – birthday parties, first communions, etc. She is part of our family, and this book is dedicated to her.

Is the real Ali anything like her character?

Yes, she is always bringing the girls treats, games, art projects and gifts when she babysits them or comes to visit them. She plays non-stop with them and truly treats them like they are her own children. We adore her! She made my life so much easier as a mom who owned her own company while juggling motherhood and the home.

Why did you wait until Valentine’s Day 2023 to release Love is in the Air?

We had the book completely illustrated in 2021, however, it was just too close to the end of the year. I wanted to make sure that I had enough time to promote the book and submit it for reviews and awards. I have learned not to rush things. It’s best to give each book the time and attention that they deserve for a successful launch.

How many Adventures in Harmony books will there be?

This is the seventh Adventure in Harmony book. I have two more books coming out this year and three more books releasing next year. I have also started my chapter books. Those will be launching at the beginning of next year (fingers crossed).

What is the most difficult part about being an author?

Patience and thick skin. We must remind ourselves that not everyone will love our books, and that is OK. Our books are our works of art, so we can’t help but feel crushed if someone tells us something negative about them. We must be patient, learn the process, and realize that great things take time.
