Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’m 21 and I go to college online, will be graduating next year! I’m also a mother and a wife, I adore my family more than anything. I’ve always got my head in the clouds, which is why I enjoy writing so much.
I have written 5 books. I’m currently working on another (cue secretive laugh) and my 5th book will be released at the end of 2018, which is super exciting!
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
The book that is coming out later this year would be Dusk of September!
Honestly, I was sitting at Red Lobster with my husband and I was just bouncing ideas off him. He told me he loved them all but I was just drawn into this one story.
You’ll have to check it out. 🙂
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
For some reason, I always have to take a bath before I write anything. Then half way through my bath I get super inspired and have to rush to my computer and type out all my ideas.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Last Christmas, by Kate Brian influenced me the most. This book was my first full novel I read on my own. It has stuck with me all of these years.
What are you working on now?
My lips are sealed for the most part… But I will tell you two things.
1. It is romance.
2. It has werewolves
Shhhhhh.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Honestly, marketing is my downfall. I would have to say Twitter though.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Keep writing, no matter what obstacle you face. Don’t ever forget why you started writing in the first place!
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Ignore the negativity. There will always be someone who has a positive.
What are you reading now?
The Boy I Hate by: Taylor Sullivan
What’s next for you as a writer?
To keep on writing. Hopefully, get noticed.
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?
That’s a hard one.
