Author Interview!
Do you see writing as a career?
I definitely hope so. I would like to start writing more than one book at a time. I am aiming to try that next month.
What do you think about the current publishing market?
I think there is so much opportunity for everyone.
Do you read yourself and if so what is your favorite genre?
Currently I read werewolf, vampire and dragon stories. I love to see how everyone takes a different spin on the stories. We have a lot of talented writers out there!
Do you prefer to write in silence or with noise? Why?
A bit of both. The noise doesn’t bother me unless I am writing a complicated scene.
Do you write one book at a time or do you have several going at a time?
Currently one book at a time; hoping to expand to a couple at the same time.
Pen or type writer or computer?
Computer all the way.
Tell us about a favorite character from a book.
From my books – The Beta’s Mate – Sam is a favorite character of mine. He was fun to write and see him evolve.
What made you want to become an author and do you feel it was the right decision?
I have always had an over active imagination. I remember being in school and wanting to write but always felt it was a crazy goal. I loved reading as a child and always thought it would be cool to do my own story. Now I truly believe it was the right decision.
Advice you would give new authors?
Try it – if you want to do it, there is a story to be told and someone who wants to read it!
What makes a good story?
I think that is up to the reader. For me I like turmoil, I like growth, I like to see the main couple get a happy ever after in spite of the challenges.
What is your writing process? For instance do you do an outline first? Do you do the chapters first?
I do a very brief outline and then the chapters write themselves. Sometimes the story follows the outline, but most times it strays off and takes a life of its own.
If you could tell your younger writing self anything, what would it be?
Start writing sooner!
How long on average does it take you to write a book?
It depends on the story. For me it is usually a couple months or slightly more. I do not, personally, want a story to linger too long.
