FWM: Who is Gracia and what is your superpower?
Gracia’s superpower is the ability to turn all of her life’s tragedies into gold and thereby empower other women to live their best life without fear, shame or condemnation. It is my purpose to teach women that it’s never too late, there’s no shame in starting over and that you can become any and everything you imagine. You have the power to create the version “you” that is presented to the world and you can do so with authenticity and boldness.
FWM: How can women who want to do what you do gain access and support?
Women can reach out to me on all of my social media platforms, Gracia Collins Rich on Facebook, @beautifullynaturalgeek on IG and @Gracia1113 on Twitter. They can also reach out to me via email at gcr1113@gmail.com.
FWM: You’re a serious BOSS! Tell us, what are you working on and what’s next for you?
Later this month, I will be releasing my new novel, Handkerchief, which is book one in my Thriller trilogy. Handkerchief is a psychotic, thrill-ride of cat and mouse. My protagonist is young, beautiful and rich. She lives the life that so many people dream of. She finds herself immersed in a web of murders, which to anyone else would be a problem. Not so for her, since she’s the actual murderer.
I think this book will shock a lot of readers because it is the first time that they will see a woman of color in this capacity. She’s intense, gritty and raw, while still remaining intelligent and amiable. You’ll find yourself liking her, and hate yourself for it. It’s the first in a trilogy that I’m writing. Will she get caught? You’ll have to get the book to find out.
