Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I was raised in sunny and beautiful Los Angeles, CA and graduated from Loyola Marymount University. I’ve published one contemporary romance book and am preparing the release of my second romance book.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
The name of my book is “Passion Never Dies” and my inspiration was long-lost lovers reuniting at last.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I often wake up in the middle of the night and write ideas down on post-its and scraps of paper. It makes for a messy desk the next morning.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
My favorite authors are Madeline Hunter, Julie Garwood, Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Deborah Simmons and Amanda Quick. They’ve all been extremely influential in the way I write.
What are you working on now?
I’m preparing my second contemporary romance book to be released soon.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I use several promotion sites and the following have been most helpful; Awesome Gang, Kindle Nation Daily, World Literary Cafe, Book Goodies, Frugal Freebies, Book Freebies, Kindle Book Review, Flurry of Words, ask David, Freebooksy, It’s Write Now, Wanton Reads, Pretty-Hot and Book Reader Magazine.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Keep writing and don’t get discouraged.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Don’t let anyone ever tell you that you can’t do something. Listen to your heart, believe in your dreams and don’t let anyone stand in your way.
What are you reading now?
I’d like to read more of Sarah Maclean’s novels. She has a unique voice and I love her style of writing.
What’s next for you as a writer?
To continue writing and having fun.
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?
Several of my all-time favorite romance books which I never get tired of re-reading and a book about how to build a raft so I can get off the island.
