Follow Fest 2014

I’m happy to be participating in this year’s Follow Fest, which is organized by Melissa Maygrove. The Follow Fest is a one-week event that serves as a networking tool to meet and learn about other writers outside our usual blogging circles.

I missed out on this event last year and was told by several writers how much fun it was, therefore, of course, I’m not gonna miss the fun again. Duhhhh.

 

So let’s get started!

Name:

Demetria Foster Gray

Fiction or nonfiction?

Fiction, yes please! But I also like inspirational nonfiction, and some biographies.

What genres do you write?

Contemporary Women’s Fiction

Are you published?

Yes. My debut novel Sifting Through Mud was released August 2014. It’s a contemporary women’s fiction book. Add it to your Goodreads “Want to Read” list here.

Do you do anything in addition to writing?

I’m a freelance writer and communications consultant with expertise in writing marketing, technical, and corporate communications for various companies.

Tell us a little about yourself.

I’m married with two kids (a pre-teen and a full-blown, drive me bats teenager. They both are the joy of my life).

For the past several years I’ve been on a mind, body, and soul journey to live my truth and walk in my fullest potential. Because of this, I’ve become an inner-growth, self-development, self-empowered, spiritual junkie who gobbles up books by spiritual thought leaders like: Dr. Wayne Dyer, Iyanla Vanzant, Deepak Chopra, T.D. Jakes, Marianne Williamson (and many others).

I’m a Pepsi-holic, chocoholic, shower singer, work-out dabbler, Zumba dancer, and tv-sitcom freak. I love a good laugh, a good book, a good hair day, long walks alone, and the color blue (particular navy blue). Fresh air and silence are my two best friends.

What are you reading right now?

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho

Which authors influenced you the most?

Elizabeth Berg made me fall in love with contemporary women’s fiction. I thoroughly enjoy her books (most of them).
