Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am the author of the Watcher Series, a young adult Scifi Dystopian series. Sawyer Russo has sworn to protect humanity, and as a Watcher she’s done just that. But the Bots and Carbons that took her city are evolving, and they start picking the Watchers off one by one. One last rescue mission will change everything. When someone betrays them, the line between friend and foe is no longer easily drawn. Sawyer made a vow, and she will fulfill it, even if it means ending the person who deceived them, no matter who it might be. It all comes down to one choice… Who can she save? And who does she have to let go?
The first book in the series, WATCHER, was released on March 13, 2017 and is now available through Amazon. I also have 2 FREE Novellas, KENZIE is released May 23, 2017 and MAX is released June 20, 2017. Both are free and will take you into the world of Watcher during the 10 years before book 1 picks up. Both can be read before or after book 1 without spoiling anything!
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Watcher is the name of the latest book, and it’s loosely inspired by terminator meets assassins creed. I love Scifi movies as well as kick butt assassins, so I took the two ideas and put the together.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I tend to be a “pantser”, meaning I don’t usually plot out where the book is going, I just let the characters dictate what happens. I have a loose idea of where I think it may go, but often find my self surprised with what happens in my own books!
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Sarah J. Maas is the queen! I love all her series, every word from every book! She’s been a huge inspiration in creating strong female characters and dashing yet complex male characters.
Divergent and Hunger Games are old favourites as well that I often get comparisons with book series.
What are you working on now?
I am currently working on Book 2 of the Watcher Series, CARBON set to be released September 2017
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Facebook is a wealth of knowledge. I lean heavily on the guidance of other authors who have done this already! I am apart of Facebook groups who share newsletter swaps, giveaway promos and ideas that worked for them.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Just write! Don’t worry about the critics, even your own internal critic, and just write. If you love what your doing no body can take that away from you!
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Don’t settle for good, strive for great.
What are you reading now?
I am of course reading SJM – A Court of Wings and Ruins
What’s next for you as a writer?
Just keep learning and pursuing my dreams
If you were going to be stranded on a desert island and allowed to take 3 or 4 books with you what books would you bring?
A Court of Thorn and Roses series. Or Harry Potter but that’s more than 3-4 books and I’d hate to have to choose which ones to leave behind!

Just finished arc:carbon
Would have been a fine novel but, but there were so many grammatical errors, misspelling and difficult sentence structure that I gave up noting them all.
This need some serious editing and/or rewriting.
I hope that it can be fixed before actual release.
