Interview
If you could change something about your first book, what
would it be?
I would make it a bit longer and more fleshed out.
What do you enjoy most about writing?
Creating new characters and worlds. I love opening a new word
document and letting my muse take over.
How do you cope with stress as an author?
With lots of coffee and my sounding board, my partner of seven
years.
Which of your books would you recommend to someone who doesn’t
normally read your genre, and why?
If you enjoy paranormal with romance, then please try my Devon Falls
series. Each book is a new set of main characters but past characters pop up and
help move the story along. I have dream walkers, shifters and soon the fae as well
as elemental mages will be popping in.
What kind of books do you read when taking a break from your
own writing?
All depends on my mood. Lately I am into fantasy such as Jim
Butcher, Gail Z. Martin and a few others plus my m/m faves such as Sue Brown, Andrew
grey and more.
What do you think is the future of traditional publishing?
I think traditional publishing is now just seeing how well e-books
are really doing and though late to the party, they are trying to play catch up
even after many years of scoffing at e-books and their popularity. I would love
to see the big six redo their publishing model and make it more relevant to today’s
changing world as well as fighting against e-book pirates.
Imagine you get to go on a dream vacation, but you have only
one hour to pack and leave, and it starts as soon as you finish this interview.
What will you take with you and where will you go?
Some place warm…maybe Hawaii
since I have never been there. Shorts, bathing suit and maybe my trusty yoga pants
as well as a few pairs of jeans. If money is no object then I am planning to buy
clothes there. J
What good book have you read recently?
I am loving Gail Z. Martin’s Chronicles of the Necromancer/Fallen
Kings series…wonderful fantasy and in e-books, I loved Andrew Grey’s debut young
adult story, By The Creek under pen name Geoff Laughton. Exquisitely written and
very heartfelt.
If you were a color, what color would you be?
I am an all shades of blue or purple kind of girl
Please underline which statement is more like you:
“I am a vacation spa because I am laid back and relaxed.”
“I am a ten-countries in ten-days tour vacation, because
I do things as fast as possible.”
Please complete the sentences
I love pizza with black olives, pepperoni, and mushrooms.
I’m always ready for unexpected company with plenty of coffee
and cookies around my house.
When I’m alone, I like curling up in my honey’s big easy chair
and reading on my nook.
You’d never be able to tell, but I had over a dozen surgeries
in my teens for cervical spine cancer.
If I had a halo it would be hung up on my devil horns.
If I could be anyone I’d be Johnny Depp’s assistant.
I can never have too many books because it’s unnatural
not to have books IMO.
