Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am legally changing my name. I have written two books. The first book I was overly excited and published far too quickly. Thus, I began the second book. I do have some fiction novels in the works and tons of ideas for other fiction novels. Writing has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
The newest book, B.O.U.N.D. is a non-fiction BDSM book. This may offend people. However, I was inspired to write BOUND due to the infamous fiction novel about BDSM. There was a lot of just garbage in it and while it turned on much of the female populace, it disgusted many of us that actually are part of the lifestyle. No dominant worth their salt would take a person that has never been exposed to BDSM and just throw them in the deep-end and let them sink or swim. It takes a long time to cultivate a BDSM relationship.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Well, I am not sure if it is unusual or not but I schedule time to write. I am so busy that I often forget to enjoy life. Writing is one of my greatest joys.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Lisa Jackson, Nora Roberts, David Hume, Edgar Allen Poe, Shakespeare, Iris Johansen, Belle Brooks, Stephen King, Piers Anthony.
What are you working on now?
I am working on a fiction murder/mystery. I am naming it Gagged. It is currently 15,000 words and counting.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I tend to spam facebook with my book promotions. I have recently begun coding my own website.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Whew, that’s a great question. My advice, write what you are passionate about. Listen to the voices in your head, and use everyday events that you experience as fodder for your book. If you get stuck, you know, writers’ block; free write for about 20 minutes.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Can I put two in here? I’m going to give you two quotes. Speak the truth even if your voice shakes. No one will ever have your back so you better have your own.
What are you reading now?
Currently, I am reading a lot of clinical stuff for my job.
What’s next for you as a writer?
Well, I plan to make a big move within the next year to the west coast. I have about 6 books that I am currently working on. Hopefully, one of them turns out well enough to publish.
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 have to take an unabridged works of Edgar Allen Poe, Plato, Maya Angelou’s I know why the caged bird sings, and Whatever Iris Johansen’s latest book is.
