Interview with Yulinda Blake Cook
How did you become involved with the subject or theme of your book?
My book Polly’s Special Day is based on a true event that happened to my first grandchild.
What were your goals and intentions in this book, and how well do you feel you achieved them?
My goal is to show the importance of the relationship between a father and daughter. Time is a mathematical equation, it can be used to add or subtract, multiply or divide a relationship. Why not use it to provide a positive outcome in your relationship with your child. I am achieving the goals, it is a continuous mission.
What was the hardest part of writing this book?
The illustrations.
What did you enjoy most about writing this book?
I enjoyed incorporating family in the scenes. I also enjoyed creating rhythmical flow that can be enjoyed by everyone.
Where there alternate endings you considered?
Yes, I considered alternate endings.
Can you share some stories about people you met while researching this book?
Since my book is personal, I had no flesh and blood contacts, just internet and books.
What genre of books do you enjoy reading?
I enjoy reading all types of books. Lately it’s been autobiographies or biographies.
