My name is Harmony Stalter. I have been a freelance writer since 2005. In the beginning, I just dabbled in it, but by the end of 2006 I was a full time writer. I released my first book in 2008. It was a poetry book. I have since re-released it. Since that first release in 2008 I have released 5 more books.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
My latest release is titled Two Romantic, Two Suspenseful: A Short Story Compilation. It a book of four very different short stories that I have written over the past few years. The only commonality between the stories is the relationship dynamic and how it is tested throughout the stories.
The inspiration for the stories all came from different points in my life. The first story’s inspiration came from something I saw in a movie. Sometimes, that takes place it will only take one scene for me to become inspired to write a story. The second story’s inspiration came from a news story. The third story’s inspiration came from my own life. The final story’s inspiration came from a place I used to go.
