Author Profile – Georgene Collins

What was your favorite book when you were a child?

Charlotte’s Web.

Was there a book that changed your life? If so which one and how did it affect you?

Yes, Taming Your Gremlin by Rick Carson.  The book speaks to the inner voice that tries to control us and keep us safe.  I had known about the inner voice but until I read Carson’s book I did not know how common it was and I guess I felt a sense of normalcy.  Once I realized everyone deals with that little voice, namely fear, I was able to talk back a bit and ask for some proof of my fear!  That little voice usually hushes at that point!

What do you think makes a good writer?

The ability to relate well to others.

What inspired you to write your first book?

To educate others on safe ways to lose and maintain their weight loss.

Do you see writing as a career?

Yes as an added service to the education I want to provide.
