Interview With Author Ruby Scott
Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am a Lesfic author who publishes on Amazon and Kindle Unlimited. I started writing during Covid and absolutely loved it. I am just finishing my 14th and 15th books which will be out late Sept 2022. These are:
Inside Fighter
Seconds Out
On The Ropes
Evergreen
The Stranger within me
Strangely Familiar
Hot Response
Love Diagnosis
Love Trauma
Open Heart
Trails of The Heart
Healing of The Heart
May I Call you Mistress
Darkness of Desires
Rescuing Hearts
I have also written 3 lesfic romcom books under the pen name Frankie Duncan too
First Comes Love
Love in Action
Her Christmas Escape
And now this is where I have to do that awful cringey bit where I tell you about myself. Let’s start with the interesting stuff.
The love of my life is Bailey. With four paws and a love of duck chews as well as tennis balls, she is a quirky character who loves cuddles. Other than Bailey, I love women, trail running, good films, travelling lots,reading as well as watching women’s soccer aka football and hockey.
I’m a wedding celebrant (it’s an amazing job), and content writer to pay my bills although that isn’t as exciting as writing stories about women loving women. Like many lesfic authors, I’m working towards the day when this will be my main gig so I can get lost in my writing and happy ever afters all day and every day.
Essential things you need to know about me might include:
I don’t function without coffee
I’m a Taurean
I might be a little bit stubborn
I love women’s hockey
I love women
I love people that can make me laugh. It’s such an attractive quality
I smile. Lots.
My best quality is kindness
My worst quality is stubbornness
And I can roll my tongue (I bet you are trying to roll yours now!)
And I love chocolate brownies
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Strangely Familiar was my last book out and I really enjoyed writing it. A sequel to The Stranger within me , they are both a murder mystery sci fi thriller. Basically strap yourself in and be prepared for a rollercoaster of a ride. These 2 books were a totally different genre for me and I loved getting into the gritty murders scenes and making this book an action packed thriller with lots of twist and turns you just won't expect. It received lots of 5 stars reviews and my fans are still asking when there will be a 3rd book in the series!
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I wouldn't say unusual writing habits, but when it comes to the steamy romance scenes I have to get my wife to pretend act out what is going on in my head lol… all legitimate and for research purposes only, her face at times is a picture……
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Sarah Waters obviously but do like Anna Stone and Jae.
What are you working on now?
I'm working on Rescuing Hearts and also Darkness of Desires which will be out late Sept 2022.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I do Amazon Ads and have recently just started to look into promotional sites too.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Read alot, write alot and have your own voice.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Don't ever stop learning and growing as a person.
What are you reading now?
I'm actually reading On Writing by Stephen King
What’s next for you as a writer?
I'm just going to continue to do what I love doing and write and see where the next year takes me.
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?
How to stay alive: The ultimate survival guide for any situation by Bear Grylls
The SAS survival handbook by John Lofty Wiseman
The utimate survival medicine guide by Joseph and Amy Alton
