Why do you write in the genre that you do?
I write paranormal romance because it’s what I love to read. It let’s you create your own worlds as well as characters with a little something extra. So far the majority of my characters have been human and shifter (bears so far).
How has writing changed/altered your life?
I don’t read as much as I used to. And my writing has taken over pretty much every free moment of my time. My husband likes to joke that I need to hurry up and make a ton of money…so that I have free time again. I told him I don’t do it for the money. I do it for the love of my readers, my characters and to get my stories out there into the world.
Who are your favorite authors and why?
One of my all time favorites is Moxie North. Her books take me into another world and make me feel all the feels…she is an amazing writer.
I also love P Jameson, her dirt track dogs series really draws me in. Both are always on my re-read pile!
Another fav is KC Lynn she can rip my heart right out and then put it right back in with her amazing tales of love, danger and happily ever after…I have ugly cried A LOT when I’ve read her books…
What is your opinion of mainstream/corporate bookstores?
I love bookstores, unfortunately I don’t think they will continue to thrive with the way online books are available now…I used to co-own a small town bookstore with my mom, it was an amazing experience but it was very expensive to keep it up and running.
What do you hope your readers will take away from your work?
I hope my readers can ‘see’ what I write, have you ever read a book and been able to see it in your head as you’re reading it? That is what I want. I also want to write books that move people.
How much does personal experience play in your written work?
Actually not as much as people might think. Some situations that I have written have happened to me or someone close to me..but usually I just pull shit out of the air.
How do you find the motivation to complete a book/story?
Some books flow so well that I don’t really need any motivation. Others I turn on my inspiration music and go for it.
What makes you NOT finish reading a book?
Bad editing…I just can’t…also, when an author changes the main characters name mid way through the story without an explanation. I kid you not I recently read a book where the main male character had three different names..I just couldn’t do it
Do you believe writing should be censored – that some topics should remain taboo?
I don’t think so. I think most people can decide for themselves what they want to read and if they don’t want to read about a certain subject they can choose not to.
Where can people find you and your work?
I have a website where people can buy signed print copies of my work. and also on amazon.com for eBooks.
