Today I have the honor to present RT Bryant's book Yesterday Mourning. Here is my interview with her.
GB: Tell us a little bit about yourself:

GB: Which is one rule you are proud of breaking?
RTB: I’m not waiting to live. I watch people and it seems most are waiting for a certain time in their lives or a specific moment when everything will fall into place and they can actually start living. Maybe it’s a lack of patience on my part but I’m choosing to enjoy the minutes/days of my life right now. I make decisions based on my current truth/reality and I try not to apologize for it. The more I suffered through watching loved leave this earth the more I felt an urge and desire to explore and experience what life has to offer.
GB: What are your hobbies?
GB: What are your hobbies?
RTB: I love writing and traveling. I published my first book, Yesterday Mourning, in May and I’ve already started releasing short stories via my blog (myndmatters.wordpress.com). Later this year, I kick off a three-month sabbatical from my job and I’ll use the time to travel (5 countries), write, and enjoy just ‘being.’
GB: What is the worst job you’ve ever done and why?
GB: What is the worst job you’ve ever done and why?

GB: Which was the scariest moment of your life?
GB: Which was the scariest moment of your life?
RTB: The second I realized my mother was dying and there was nothing I could do to stop it. That moment sparked a chain of events that inspired Yesterday Mourning.
GB: What advice would you give your 18 year old self?
GB: What advice would you give your 18 year old self?
RTB: Everyone thinks you’re strong, smart, and capable because you are. There’s nothing wrong or arrogant with you believing it and saying it too.
