Please welcome Forbes Arnone with her DEBUT PUBLICATION today. She is the author of In My Mother's Footsteps, which is one of three novellas in the Beach Reads Volume 1 anthology: Summer Heat.
I asked Ms. Arnone to tell us what she wanted to be when she grew up. Here's what she had to say . . .
Depended on what day it was. I changed careers every week and the great thing about that is my dad completely supported me with every idea. I wanted to be an actress; he was going to put me in acting classes. When I wanted to be a clothing designer; he found me a designing school. It kept going until I had no idea what I wanted to do. All I knew then was I needed to be my own boss. I worked for a major corporation for almost ten years and left to run the family business. I have been my own boss ever since. I don't think I ever wished to be an author when I grew up. However, I am so glad I decided to give it a shot, because I have been so happy ever since. I now have two books releasing this summer: My first novella, In My Mother's Footsteps releases July 2nd and my first novel, My Mr. Manny releases August 26th and I don't plan on stopping there.
