BBB: What inspired you to become an author?
CFA: It was so much as a desire to write as it was that I felt that I had the stories of my life inside of me that had to be told.

BBB: How did you come up for the idea for Forever Different: A Memoir of One's Woman's Journey Living with Bipolar Disorder?
CFA: I feel that I have been writing this book my entire life. And when it came down to finally putting it on paper the words just flowed and I was able to write the book in a three month period. My inspiration for writing the book came out of adversity, I was sentenced to 70 months in federal prison and I knew I had to tell my story and that when I came home it would be time to share it with the world.
BBB: What do you believe reader's will like most about your book?
CFA: I think the readers will appreciate that I striped down and got naked in front of them and said things about myself other people would only think to themselves. I was as honest as I could possibly be, and took the chance of exposing myself with the hope to reach someone and help them if they were bipolar but living in denial.
