She shared the focus of her novel, set in South Texas.
“ ‘The Willows of Corona’ is, at its core, a novel dealing with the complex structures of subjects such as love, relationships, and the perseverance of the human heart. It takes place in South Texas, and has both a heartbreaking and uplifting narrative that embodies the full spectrum of human experience,” she explained.
