Q: What’s your favorite quote?
A: Love, like vodka should flow freely.
Q: How often do you write?
A: Since participating in NaNoWriMo in November 2017 I'm writing nearly every day. At the moment I have
a full time day job so my writing, planning, research, outlining, etc. is done in the morning before my work
day begins, evenings and weekends. My ultimate goal, like most authors is to write full time. Baby steps. :)
Q: What do you like to read?
A: I enjoy many genres in erotic romance, including paranormal, contemporary, ménage, and some BDSM
erotic romance. I'm extremely loyal to the authors I like. I look for stories with a happily (and naughtily) ever after
or happy for now ending.
Q: Who are your favorite authors?
A: So many authors it's difficult to name them all, but some are Heather Rainier, Sam Crescent, Jenika Snow, Erin Leaf, Julia Kent, Lexi Blake, Jennifer Probst, Laura M. Baird, Donna Michaels, Bella Andre, the list goes on and on...
Q: What motivated you to start writing?
A: Finally making the decision to start with the support and encouragement of my family and friends. It's something I've wanted to do for many years. After I attended Siren-Bookstrand's Romance Convention in August of 2012 in Dallas, TX and met so many of my favorite Siren authors (wonderful, talented men and women) - I decided to stop dreaming and do it.
It took me a while before I truly felt "ready" but in November of 2017 I participated in NaNoWriMo for the first time and finished the challenge with over 75,000 written words. Those words became my first contemporary erotic romance called On the Ropes. On the Ropes was accepted by Evernight Publishing on 1/11/18.
