Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’m 24 years old. I love horse back riding, figure skating, being outdoors, fishing, archery, shooting, and playing sports. I’ve written somewhere around 20 books…I lost track awhile ago.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
My latest book is Court of Vampires. I was inspired to write it after a group of fans pleaded with me to write a vampire book.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I like to wake up in the middle of the night with an idea and just go for it.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Some of my favorite authors include C.S. Lewis, Peter S. Beagle, and Laurie Halse Anderson.
What are you working on now?
Right now I’m working on my newest sword and sorcery adventure, Song of Smoke and Fire. It’s a retelling of an ancient Polish legend with a lot of dragon shifters.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Word of mouth. Always, always, always.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Be prepared for long days, late nights, and to work harder than you’ve ever worked. Don’t get into this unless your heart tells you that you have no choice (like mine did)!
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
If it’s meant to be, it’s meant to be.
What are you reading now?
Cinder by Marissa Meyer.
What’s next for you as a writer?
I’m working on releasing the sequel to Court of Vampires, Den of Wolves.
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?
Preferably “Survival Skills,” “How to Build a Raft,” “Get off a Stranded Island,” and “Signal for Help.”
