Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
Hi – my current author website may be a little confusing. It is http://springer-spaniel-mysteries.com since my first books were about Springer Spaniels solving mysteries (illustrated chapter books for kids 8+). All my books are on the books page. The first Spaniel book is free.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
I think we need courage every day. The reason I wrote a vampire book was in response to other vampire books already out there. For example, my vampire struggles with mediocrity and finances.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Other vampires tales have influenced me over the years. I really don’t like combining vampires and werewolves, so my vampire book contains no werewolves!
What are you working on now?
I’m working on a time-travel, real estate, satire book about Charleston, SC.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I’m still in the process of finding out what works for me. I’ve done giveaways on Goodreads.com for reviews and those went well. I’m using Smashwords. I’m offering a permanent free book.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
After you write, market market market! And start working on the next book. Never give up, never surrender!
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
You only fail if you quit.
What are you reading now?
“The Fiery Cross” and “The Fatal Shore”
What’s next for you as a writer?
To finish my second novel. I’ve been struggling with the plot for over a year.
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?
“Gone with the Wind”, “Interview with the Vampire”, “Pet Semetary”
