Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’m Kristie Dickinson, and I’ve written four books. The four books comprise a serial in the ongoing story of Katie Collins, a workaholic attorney who travels to Greece alone for a vacation. I was inspired to write the story when I was seated next to a much younger man on the plane that gave me his phone number. Although we did have one date, sadly, I never saw him again. Happily, he inspired the four books that comprise the Nine Days In Greece serial.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
My latest book is Nine Days Ever After. It is the conclusion to the story of Katie Collins and her Greek god. It was inspired by my ongoing fantasies about the Greek man I met on an airplane that changed my life.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I prefer to write first thing when I wake up in the morning. I’m a little superstitious in that I believe I do my best work sitting in my sun room sipping coffee.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I love Danielle Steel and Jack Canfield. I read everything they write that I can get my hands on. In general, I love self-improvement books and romance novels.
What are you working on now?
My next book I plan to be a mystery based on a secret in my hometown in northern Michigan.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
So far Amazon and Twitter have been my best methods for promotion.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Just keep writing! I think I get better the more books I write!
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Why bother doing something if you’re not going to give it 100%? You’re already there and spending the time, so do it right.
The second would be, “There are thousands of people in hospitals that would give anything to be able to do what you’re doing now.” Never take your life for granted.
What are you reading now?
The Times We Had by Marion Davies.
What’s next for you as a writer?
I seem to have crossed from romance to romance/mysteries. I have several more books that I can’t wait to write. One is a romance/mystery, and one is a historical romance.
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 Success Principles, The House, and something by Suzanne Somers. 🙂
