Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
Camille Cabrera recently published her third book. Currently, she has two more novels in the works. She often writes stories and revisits the concepts at a later date. One of her books is set for release later in 2022.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
THE MYSTERY OF MISTLETOE MOTEL is Camille’s most recently published novel. She had wanted to create a cozy mystery novel that centered around Christmas. Camille loves writing stories that include an often familiar holiday.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Absolutely! Camille has several odd writing habits. Mainly, Camille insists on writing her books by hand before typing them out. She finds that her writing has a more cohesive flow when she writes the words by hand.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Camille believes that Agatha Christie has most inspired her work in the cozy mystery genre. Of course, Camille also believes in stretching her wings and intends to spread out over the much larger mystery genre.
What are you working on now?
Currently, Camille is working on CHRONOMETER. The novel is a crime mystery that is set in 2019 within the bustling city of San Francisco. The novel is set for release during September 2022.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Camille believes in offering copious interviews and investing in quality writing. She finds that books often speak for themselves when given the proper platform.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Keep writing. The ability to convey a story is an art, but also a craft. Practice helps to hone your skills and improve your writing. It’s not about how you start the draft, but how you finish that final revision.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Don’t let fear keep you away from what you love. It’s reasonable to be afraid of failure or rejection, but that’s no way to live this one and only life.
What are you reading now?
Camille is currently rereading the dictionary. No, seriously.
What’s next for you as a writer?
Ideally, Camille intends to continue writing and growing as an author. Chronometer is currently her most challenging project as she is eager to see it come together.
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?
In the event of being stranded, Camille would opt for blank pieces of paper. She would finally have enough time to write away from the distractions of home and ironically create a project within a reasonable timeline.
