She owes everything to Shane.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
BLAI2E, part 2 in the Dark Romance Series. I was inspired by a mixture of authors, movies, music and life events. BLAI2E has been my hardest story to tell to date.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I’m an OCD edit-author. I edit as I go, which kills the mood. But I am trying to break the habit.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Anna Zaires is a huge inspiration to me. Not only is she talented and one of the best storytellers I’ve read to date, but she’s the kindest person.
What are you working on now?
BLAIR3, Part 3 in the Dark Romance Series. And I’m also working on a frenemies to lovers standalone.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I do a lot of author cross promotion, Facebook giveaways, and author takeovers. I also use Red Feather Romance.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
If you don’t enjoy what your writing, your readers won’t. And a cover is the most important thing to selling, second to writing a different, exciting and engaging novel.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Write drunk. Edit sober.
What are you reading now?
I’m reading Twilight for the 1000s time.
What’s next for you as a writer?
I’m turning my Dark Romance Series into audio books and having them translated in numerous languages.
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?
The Twist Me Trilogy and The Picture of Dorian Gray.
