Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I write an eclectic mix of stories ranging from sci fi to fantasy to horror. I’m obsessed with zombies, slasher films, and any creature features. In my work, I like to explore what it means to be human. I’ve written six novels, three novelettes, and one short story collection under the pen name Pembroke Sinclair. Under my real name, Jessica Robinson, I’ve written two nonfiction books about slasher films and zombies. You can learn more about me by visiting http://pembrokesinclair.blogspot.com/
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Dealing with Devils, it is the second book in The Road to Salvation series. The first is The Appeal of Evil. The stories were inspired by a dream I had.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I don’t think so. Unless you count handwriting this last book.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Piers Anthony, Christopher Pike, Milton, C.S. Lewis, Lewis Carroll–to name but a few.
What are you working on now?
The third book in The Road to Salvation series. It doesn’t have a title yet.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Probably my blog (http://pembrokesinclair.blogspot.com/) and my Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/jessicarobinsonauthor?ref=hl)
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Write what you want to write, and don’t let anyone tell you you’re wrong. Writing should make you happy, and if it doesn’t, it’s not worth doing.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
“You have to follow your own voice. You have to be yourself when you write. In effect, you have to announce, ‘This is me, this is what I stand for, this is what you get when you read me. I’m doing the best I can—buy me or not—but this is who I am as a writer.’”
– David Morrell
What are you reading now?
Alien River of Pain by Christopher Golden
What’s next for you as a writer?
Finishing the third book, then taking a little break.
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 bring 3 or 4 blank notebooks so I could write my own stories.
