Interview
~What are you currently working on?
Right now, I am working on two books. One is a historical, suspense romance trilogy. The second book is a contemporary romance.
~What writing advice do you have for aspiring authors?
Don’t give up. I know it’s easy to say it, but it is what I learned from my professors, teachers and life. Out of the 50+ rejection emails from publishers, I made myself keep going. Another tidbit of advice is to keep writing no matter what.
~Are you an organized author or scattered?
At the beginning, I am somewhat organized. Throughout the process of writing, I am scattered at times. It really depends on my writing location and distractions.
~Do you plot out your story or write as it goes?
When I have a story idea, I write down as much as I can right then. I try to plot stories like my English teachers taught me, but I find it sometimes hinders my creative flow.
~Do you have any strange writing habits?
I read scenes out loud. I always have music on in the background too. It sometimes distracts me and I end up singing along, but it helps me write.
~Do you have writers block and how do you work around it?
Sadly, yes I have been the victim of writers block. One of the ways I get through it is by watching a cheesy romance movie. It doesn’t cure the block right away, but it definitely helps to get away from my story for a while and focus on something else.
~Do you work on 1 story at a time or multiples?
I try to stick with working one story at a time. Right now, I’m editing two of my books, so that is the only time I overlap.
~What is your favorite genre to read?
The majority of what I read is romance. Historical, mystery, suspense and contemporary are my favorite subgenres.
~What is the most wacky/crazy weird thing you received from a fan?
I don’t think I’ve received any wacky or crazy things from fans. Not yet at least. What are your favorite hobbies? Writing, obviously. I also love photography, reading and playing volleyball.
~If you had a warning label what would it say?
Caution: Sassy
~Favorite quote?
“Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing.” –Benjamin Franklin
