Would you like
to introduce yourself with a short bio?
Things that we don’t know about you maybe?
Basics-
I’m
28, Mother of 3 daughters, Step mom of 3. I live in NW Ohio.
Are there any
topics that you won't write about?
This
is an interesting Question- I can honestly say only stuff like child rape/abuse
or true incest would shy me away. The rest is seemingly fair game. Even the
dark stuff like rape itself or abuse (As long as a child isn’t involved.) I
would write about it. It can be dark but intriguing.
Are any of the
situations, scenes or characters based on your life or events in your life? If
so, can you elaborate any? =)
Not
so much as scenes but little things in my books. For instance in both my
Stricken and Attraction series there is a big age gap between some of the
lovers. My boyfriend and I are 14 years apart.
The part at the end of Stricken Trust about
administering Penis-cilin. (wink wink) – Is actually something my boyfriend
tells me ALL of the time when I’m feeling ill. He swears it’s the cure for everything,
when I’m sick. LOL.
A lot of what my characters like, especially
Emily, are what I like in person. For instance Emily wears Strawberries and
Champagne body spray- That’s what I wear, She Loves Friends the TV Show, watched
WWF growing up and idolizing the Rock. – All of those things are me.
How has your
life changed since your debut novel?
Changed
hum…Not much… It makes me want to write more because the response has been
pleasant, very sweet and supportive. My goal even though small was to sell 300
copies of Stricken Desire the first month. (I know it’s small but I honestly
know of many authors who are lucky to sell 25 a month.)
But
when I hit more than double my goal I was ecstatic! To say the least.
How did you
name your characters?
To
be honest I don’t really know. I try to pick names that make people love
them. I can’t see myself loving a gay
bff named Moose or something--- Stacy seemed to fit and it just came. So Stacy
it was.
The
thing I think some people might find a little different and I will continue
with the tradition- In EVERY single one of my series a form of the name
Anne/Anna will be present.
The
Circle of Blood Series- Annabelle is the main Character
Stricken
Rock- Anna is Emily’s Asshole—LMAO--- I know, I know that sounds completely
strange and when I thought of it I laughed and I literally almost fell on the
floor. But it somehow fits. It makes the strangeness of her Lesbianism seem
more personal and less dirty.
Attraction
Series- Anne is Becka’s Escort name.
Now-
I will just have to come up with different creative ways to use forms of this
in the future. Lol….
What made you
write The Stricken series or the Artful Attraction series?
I
started out writing a Vampire series first- It’s not great but it’s still good
for being my first series. I had an elaborate dream about what I wanted to
write and so I did. Then I read 50 Shades of Grey (I was way late to read
that.) I always read supernatural stuff before now (J.R Ward, Charlaine
Harris.). Then I popped off and read Michelle Valentines Rock Series and the
thoughts just started to flow. That’s how Stricken Rock Series came about. But
I wanted it to be more dramatic and less predictable than many series that are
out there. I found a niche that I never knew I’d be good in writing- Romance
Erotica.
Artful
Attraction (the Attraction series)- Came about when I was perusing the Stock
Free Photos for my covers and saw this woman that just screamed Escort and
somehow it clicked. I’ve never read an Escort Book to this day- Except mine. I
just loved the idea.
If you could
spend one day with any one of your characters…who would you chose and why? (I know who I would choose from your books)
Spend
a day with? Hum…. I’d have to say Deacon--- I Love all of my characters- But
he’s completely off the wall and something tells me he’d have me busy and I’d
learn all sort of interesting things.
A
Day would NEVER be enough time with James, Johnathan or Brad.
Is there
anything that is a MUST while you are writing…superstitions etc?
Not
particularly but I prefer my favorite place in the entire world to write. Which
is my BED! I LOVE my bed. It’s comforting.
3 things your
readers do not know about you.
1. I am one of the most
giving people, ever. I seriously feel guilty if I don’t get everybody in my
family something for Christmas. I get so much pleasure out of GIVING I could
care less to receive. Although I do like that too.
2. I do cake decorating as
a hobby and before my daughter Kylie was born when I was 18 – I was set to
attend Culinary School.
3. I am strangely close
with my mom. We are more like girlfriends --- But we are very close. After
years of issues and problems--- Somehow it’s finally clicked and I’m glad to be
close to my mom…. My mother moved away when I was young… We still kept in
contact and I saw her a month in the summer and at Christmas. I lived with my
dad during that time and we were very close but he died when I was 15 in a car
accident. So now it’s just me and my mom. (Since I’m an only child.)
Would you
rather have the power to be invisible or read minds?
Option
C. Neither- Telepathy would be a burden and men’s minds would consist of SEX
and women’s would be constant worry and going 500 mph. I’d rather not tap into
any of that.
Invisible
would be interesting but I’d not like to be the preverbal fly on the wall.
If you won the
lotto tomorrow, what is the first thing you would do.
Depends
on how much money. But I am a stickler for savings. So college funds, high
yield low risk investments. Etc… I not one to spend much money on myself.
Although I would probably buy myself a new Black Fuel Efficient Suburban and
have pink flames painted on my hood like my truck now.
What draws you
to write in this genre…. =)
I’m
fairly good at it… and who wouldn’t love to write about sex, drama and romance?
It’s like making a movie for somebodies brain. What’s NOT to love?
What was the
hardest thing about your latest book?
I
chose to write 2 series simultaneously and it’s soooo damn difficult I will
NEVER do that again!
It’s
also hard to decide how I want Emily to end up. It’s like letting go of a
person who’s become a very close friend. It’s very bitter sweet.
Do you have a
hardest scene you had to write? If so, can you explain?
The
airplane scene in Stricken Unveiled- I literally cried for Emily in that one.
It’s just as emotional to be writing as it is reading and sometimes more
so….Also, the first scene of Stricken Resolve that I’ve come to write so far
had be bawling like a baby 2 times already.
I’m a woman and very expressive in my emotions. So
I’ve yelled at my own book when I’m writing…example- When Johnathan pisses me
off like seriously
off the wall angry. I yell at him. “Why do you have to be such a douche?!”
Or
Laugh- like the first scene in Stricken Desire where Emily lets Johnathan have
it. I laughed so hard I had tears rolling down my face.
Would you want
to be involved with one of your characters in real life? If so, who and why?
Okay,
I can’t pick one. To be honest nobody has met him yet because I haven’t
published this but Jackson from my Circle of blood series is seriously somebody
I’d marry. Lol…and he’s a vampire. A hot hot hot one. Lol…He’s also very
interesting.
Also,
as much as some people are mad about James coming more into the forefront of
Stricken Rock series. I’d say James. He’s another man I’d marry myself. He’s
flipping hot and sweet too boot. He is a man everybody wishes they could have.
I know we all love to read about domineering strong men. But James is strong
without being pushy. He’s patient and kind. (Shit I’m about to go off quoting
Corinthians poem.) But he fits it well.
I
also love Brad- too --- Shit, I dunno, I can’t pick.
Are you a
morning person or a night owl?
Night
owl to the CORE! I’m a stay up until 6am’er then get a few hours of Zzzz’s and
do it all over again. I catch up on my sleep on the weekend.
Do you have
any pet peeves?
Yes,
don’t do something to others you wouldn’t be okay with having done to yourself.
What does the
color RED make you think of?
Red?
Periods…. That was first thought.
Fill in the
blanks…
I am really
awesome at Cooking
I am really
embarrassed to admit __I like to write and read about anal sex in books
(it’s mildly taboo) but I won’t allow myself to partake in my personal life.
(TMI? Maybe… But it’s the damn truth.)
The last great
book I read was _To be honest I’ve read a lot of GREAT books but when I think of this ONLY
one book comes to mind—Dark Citadel by Charise Sinclair --- I LOVE The series
and that was my favorite of them so far.
My favorite
book boyfriend is _
_WRATH!! From BDB and why--I fell in love with him from Dark Lover
and I wanted to fall for a different brother along the way. I truly Love V as
well… and at one point in time tried to convince myself to like him more. But
in my heart of hearts Wrath is the Hellren for me… LMAO!
I
also love the men from my series and MASTER DAN!
So there it is.....I hope you will go one click and fall in love with this amazing ladies books as much as I did......
