Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am about to release my ninth book, a short suspense titled “Reunion,” on December 9, 2016. I’ve received several awards, including a First Place for Short Suspense in the IDA (Independent Digital Awards), two Heart of Excellence Readers’ Choice Awards and a First Place Royal Palm Literary Award for Inspirational Fiction.
I’m a past President of Florida Sisters in Crime and Public Relations Director for Ancient City Romance Authors.
And when I’m not writing, I am a paralegal for an elder law attorney.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
My latest book is titled “Reunion.” It is the third in the KT Morgan Short Suspense Series. I’m not sure anything really inspired it. I just love writing suspense.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
My first draft very seldom has any scenery description. I go through and write the dialogue and action scenes, then I have to go back and set the scenes for my book.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I love Dean Koontz and CJ Box.
What are you working on now?
I’m currently working on a full-length suspense titled “Fade to the Edge” which, if all goes well, should be out sometime next year.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
So far I’ve found ereadernewstoday to be a good site for my books.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Turn off the television and social media then sit down and write.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
BIC = butt in chair.
What are you reading now?
Hank Phillippi Ryan’s “What You See.”
What’s next for you as a writer?
I usually write Christian fiction, but I’m hoping to have a non-fiction book out soon.
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?
The Bible, “A Tale of Two Cities,” by Charles Dickens, “Breaking Point,” by CJ Box, ” and “The Face of Fear” by Dean Koontz.
