Give us a brief bio: (thirty words or less) And then please answer the following questions:

Fay Lamb is the only daughter of a rebel genius father and a hard-working, tow-the-line mom, and the result is a dreamer who loves to share her daydreams with the world.

What state do you live in? Have you always lived there? Have you lived anywhere else?

I have always lived in Florida where the ocean meets space, right across the river from the Kennedy Space Center. Both my family, and my husband’s family are generational, and noted as founding families of our community. My grandmother was born here in 1899 with her mother’s family having established a steamboat landing in a nearby area called Blue Springs prior to the Civil War.

What do you write? How did you decide to become a writer?

I write a variety of genres: romantic suspense, romance, and even contemporary fiction. With my latest novel, I found myself writing a cozy mystery, and I loved it.

Where do you get your ideas for your books?

Locations strike me often, and I’ll develop a series around a special place that I’ve come to know. Sometimes, I’ll see something benign unfold, and I’ll think, “What if …” an give it a sinister twist.

Are you an introvert or an extrovert, or something in between? How does that help you write?

I used to say that I was an introvert, but then I realized that it wasn’t true. I began to teach on the subject of writing, and I also speak on women’s issues. I decided that I had been purposefully introverted and sometimes inclined to be that way. But I’m actually a lot more outgoing than I used to give myself credit for being.

Besides The Visitor series, what else have you written? What other book(s) are you planning? Oh, and when did/does your Visitor book launch?

My book, The Visitor Meets Old Hairy, was published in March, and I’m so excited. I also have four other series currently available: The first is romance: The Ties that Bind Series: Charrisse, Libby, Hope and Delilah, are the titles. My romantic series is Amazing Grace, and it includes: Stalking Willow, Better Than Revenge, Everybody’s Broken, and Frozen Notes. Those are completed. My series in the making include: Mullet Harbor Christmas, with Christmas Under Wraps and All I Want for Christmas already published and three more on the way. The first book of my Serenity Key series, Storms in Serenity, is available with Luke’s Journey under revision for publication next.
