Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I have only published one book so far but I am in the process of writing two more. I have been writing on an app called Episode Interactive and have nearly completed the second book, I just have to transfer into book form.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Invisible Scars. I had loads of dreams, so one day I sat down and wrote them into a book.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Not particularly but I have to write with music. I often get caught out with smiling like a goon whilst writing.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I haven’t read many books although I do love to read. My favourites are Fifty Shades trilogy, Twilight, Divergent Series, Hunger Games series.
What are you working on now?
The sequel to my first book and also the story in the male’s perspective.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I am very new at this but have tried to advertise where I can. Awesomegang, ilikeebooks.com and facebook groups. I have also got my own fan base from episode interactive too so I do a lot of social media.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Always write from the heart and write for yourself. I really enjoyed writing my books but the hardest part of all is to sell the book. I’m only 5 days in so far of being a published author so I still have time. But you have to do a lot of advertising but don’t let that put you off. If you want to be successful you have to push yourself.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
I have always believed, if a job is worth doing, do it yourself!
What are you reading now?
My book? Does that count? I’m currently not reading a book at the moment but I do read stories from episode interactive when I have the time.
What’s next for you as a writer?
To publish the next two books.
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?
– My book (Invisible Scars)
– Fifty Shades Trilogy
– Divergent series
– Twilight series
