Author’s Studio with Danielle Sibarium

I’m back with another segment of the Author’s Studio. This week I’m so excited because I get to bring you not only a really good friend of mine, but also one of my favorite authors. Her latest book Waves of Love kept me glued to my iPad, even when I knew I had to get to bed or I would not be able to function the next day. It was totally worth it. It’s been almost a week since I finished the book and I’m still thinking about it. Yes I’m obsessed with the Heart Waves Series. Anyway let me stop now, because trust me I go on and on. So now get to know Danielle a little better.

HERE’S A LITTLE ABOUT DANIELLE

Danielle Sibarium grew up as an only child of divorced parents in Brooklyn, New York. Her imagination was developed at an early age. Surrounded by stuffed animals and imaginary friends, she transported herself into a fantasy world full of magic and wonder. Books were the gateway between her play world and reality. On any given summer afternoon she became Snow White sweeping and cooking for the dwarfs, or Cinderella waiting for the prince. In 2007 Danielle collaborated with Charlotte Doreen Small to write songs for her CD More. Danielle wrote the lyrics for Take My Hand, and Goodbye, while Charlotte contributed the melody. In October 2011 Danielle’s debut novel For Always was released. She Has since released Heart Waves and the second book in the Heart Waves series, Breaking Waves. Danielle graduated from Farleigh Dickinson University with honors, and currently lives in New Jersey with her husband and three children.

Mommy. It encompasses everything that’s important in my life.

Can’t- it convinces it’s user that things are not possible. As Jordan in For Always often says There’s nothing you can’t do if you want it bad enough.

Ballroom dancing, especially the Latin dances. OMG when they are done well, there is nothing sexier than a Paso Doble or an Argentine Tango!

True chauvinism is a huge, undeniable, major turnoff.

The sound of my children laughing when they are letting loose with a true hardy laugh.

I equally hate the sound of nails being dragged along a chalk board, and the sound of my little girl shrieking when she doesn’t get her way. I mean it gives me chills. You think something terrible happened, meanwhile, she’s just trying to convince us to give in to her.

7. What is your favorite curse word?

Can I say that on here? Fuc* You know what letter goes there. As a word, it’s wonderful. It can be a noun, a verb, an adjective, adverb, interjection or an exclamation. Do you know any other words that can literally be anything?

I would’ve liked to be doctor. I always loved medicine.
