Author
Interview:
When and why did you begin
writing?
In 2010 I woke up from a dream and had
the title of my first book running through my head. Minutes later, I knew the
other two titles, and had the entire story-line of The Rose Trilogy all worked
out.
Who encouraged you or what
made you decide to write a novel and seek publication?
I’ve been a member of Shelfari since
2007, and was asked to become a Librarian for them after putting in countless
hours of editing. Being so emerged in books and seeing all the wonderful series
on a daily basis while working in the backend of the site, to say that books
had become my life, was an understatement. I’m now one of 13 Librarians for the
hundreds of thousands of members, as well as one of it’s top 50 editors.
What drew you to write
Paranormal Romance?
I always go back to the phrase, “Write
what you know.” And while my genre is considered paranormal for the unrealistic
and fantastical elements, it’s what I know. It’s what I prefer to read and what
I’ve studied in my actual life. (Psstt...in case you’re wondering, yes, I’m a
witch.)
Of all your characters, who’s
your favorite, and why?
Raven. She’s tough but sensitive, sexy
but tom-boyish, and has a wicked sense of humor and a sharp tongue.
What would you love to write
someday but haven’t yet?
I started a contemporary romance
trilogy that I’d love to return to. I just have to figure out how to write it
without someone getting bitten and turning into a vampire or werewolf. LOL
Were books a big part of your
life growing up? If so, what books would you say influenced you most as a
child?
Actually...no. My mother was the reader
in the family and to this day, she teases me about how it took thirty some
years for me to finally catch on.
What are two things people
might be surprised to know about you?
I’m 44, have 16 tattoos, and cuss like
a sailor. (Sorry, Grandma.)
I started teaching dance when I was 15
years old.
When you’re not writing, what
do you enjoy doing?
Watching TV and movies, and playing
games with my family.
Three things always found in
your refrigerator:
Stuffed olives, Soda, Cheese
Writing is often a sedentary
profession. Is there anything you do to beat stress and keep in shape?
I hike and exercise in my home, and
dance as often as possible.
You’re in line at Starbucks.
What are you ordering?
Java Chip Frap with Whip or a Caramel
Apple Spice
Where do you go when you need
to recharge?
Sedona, AZ or back home to Colorado.
