Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am an only child. I did not growing up wanting to be a writer, but I always loved to read. I started writing at a tough in my life when I needed an escape or a reason to feel like I was doing something with my life. This is the first book I’ve published so far, but I have about three other books finished that need to be polished.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
The Introduction (Undying Love #1) is out right now. It was supposed to be one book. But, I was half way through and I was at 80 thousand words. I was like this is too long. So I decided to turn into a series. Skylar and Arianna (the main characters) have been bouncing around my head for a while. Arianna has a lot of my quirks, like the chocolate thing. Skylar is more or less my husband most of the time. So, the characters have some traits that I can vouch for but the storyline came from somewhere deep in my head.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Not really. I outline the chapters name first and I follow the outline. The chapters are mostly songs, so I get inspiration from the songs. I always have a playlists for all my books because they are a part of the books.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I adore Kristen Proby, Abbi Glines, and I think I’m in love with H.M. Ward and C.M. Stunich.
What are you working on now?
I’m on the editing stage of book two and I’m looking over book three. I’m not sure if I like it much.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Honestly, I don’t know yet. I’m testing out the waters to see where best suits me.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Don’t stop writing even if it feels as if nothing is moving the way you want it. This is not an easy road, but if you love what you do it’s worth it. Surround yourself with positive people.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
I was doubting myself and my work. One of my beta writers said to me once, “You are an amazing writer. Don’t be discouraged you just have to get your name out there.”
What are you reading now?
I am about to read “When You’re Back” by Abbi Glines
What’s next for you as a writer?
To finish the Undying series. It’s a four-part book series.
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?
I would take all of the Hard Rock Roots series by C.M. Stunich with me. Who doesn’t love Turner Mother****ing Campbell?
