Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am the girl who was bullied in school, the girl people said would come to nothing. I have worked hard to get to where I am and now I am the author of five published books.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
The name of my latest book is After Dark: Night Walkers. It is inspired by the works of many of my fellow writers as well as some of the brilliant movies I have watched over the last year.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I like to write in the bath late at night. It is very peaceful and sometimes is the only thing that can overcome writer’s block.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I am definitely highly influenced by writers like Erin Hunter, Cassandra Clare, George R. R. Martin and Tolkien.
What are you working on now?
I am working on a supernatural type medieval novel.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I like to use facebook a lot as it allows me to speak directly to my readers. I like to be able to reply to people.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Follow your heart. Write what you want to write. Listen to criticism but never let it stop you from doing what you want to do. Use it a fuel to write even better than you were before. Also make sure you read a lot. The more you read the broader your mind will become and the better you will write.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Be yourself.
What are you reading now?
I am currently reading the 100 by Kass Morgan.
What’s next for you as a writer?
To write my next novel, keep on writing and hope my readers like my next piece.
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 the first four books of the Warrior Cats Series by Erin Hunter for the simple fact they are the books that encouraged me to enter a career as an author in the first place.
