Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
Hi there! I’m an author of Sweet Contemporary, Western Historical and Gothic Victorian Romance with over twenty published works.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
My latest book comes out on the 15th of September. It’s the third book in my Brides of Adoration series, called THE ARMS OF A STRANGER, and it was inspired by my love of this little town I created. The main character, Hannah, was a side character in the first book, and she desperately needed her own story. 🙂
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I like to write as fast as I possibly can for 15 minute sprints and try to beat my totaly word count every time? But I don’t know how odd that is. LOL.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
EVERY BOOK I EVER READ.
What are you working on now?
The fourth book in the Brides of Adoration series. It’s still untitled, but it’s nearly complete!
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
OH. Man. Well. I like to publish in a series, and then once all the books are out, I run a lot of promo and ads on the first book the series and count on the trickle down buy throughs to help boost my income.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Don’t stop… believing!!! Hold on to that feeeeeeeeling!!!! (Seriously, ya’ll. You got this. Keep writing. Never stop.)
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
WRITE. But also, calm down. You can’t do everything. And I need to remember that daily. LOL.
What are you reading now?
It’s called Trusting Her Righteous Heart by Lorelei Brogan. 🙂 I like to keep up on the other books in my favorite genres.
What’s next for you as a writer?
Well. I’m in two big huge multi-author series that will release later this year, and I want to finish my Brides of Adoration series. AND THEN… Regency romance, I think. 😉
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?
Harry Potter. (I’m gonna go ahead and count this whole series as one book, cause, ya know…. Choices. LOL)
My Jane Austen collection (Hey, still just ONE book.)
And probably something about how to escape from a desert island cause I NEED my people…..
