Author Leigh Evans Interview and $50.00 Amazon Gift Card Contest LIVE Here!
BBB: Tell us 3 things not in your bio we don’t know about you that might make us leery of befriending you. LOL
LE:
#1 When I first began speaking, everything I said was flavoured with a strong Bostonian accent. Which is weird, as I was born in the French Canadian province of Quebec. Can we spell s-p-o-o-k-y?
#2 I’m a marksmen. Give me a elastic band and a monitor, and I’ll nail that thing. One shot. Done.
#3 I’m a speed demon. Don’t get in my way.
BBB: What actors would you choose to play some of your characters if your book were made into a movie or a TV show?
LE: I could answer this, but I won’t. A long time ago, I developed a lust-crush on a literary hero. Me and my mythical boyfriend spent many happy hours together until the author revealed which actor she used as a placeholder when she created ‘my’ boyfriend. Him? Seriously? :::::pssst:::: There went my hero fixation.
BBB: How do you keep track of your world building?
LE: I’ve got three large books, filled with notes, pictures, and charts. Their spines bristle with index tabs. Despite that, I can never find what I’m looking for quickly. I spend too much time thumbing through pages, muttering darkly to myself.
BBB: Please tell us more about The Trouble with Fate and the storyline that drives it.
LE: Hedi Peacock is a half-Fae, half-Were barista who has a secret. She’s not human and she’s got the pointy Fae ears and inner-bitch to prove it. Her childhood was all magic and fur until the night both her parents were killed, and the Fae took her twin across a portal that Hedi could never breach. Ten years later, Hedi’s got life whittled down to three things: her job at Starbucks, her 9/10s batty Fae aunt, and her amulet Merry. Life’s tough enough to keep them all knee deep in maple syrup. But then the Alpha of Creemore steals Hedi’s aunt, and the only way he’ll return her is if she steals another amulet–the fancy piece hanging around the neck of the one wolf Hedi swore she’d kill if she ever ran into again. Enter Robson Trowbridge. Rogue Were. Basically, six feet of too-pretty-for-words…
BBB: How many more books there be in this world?
LE: I’m contracted for four books and, at this point, that’s what I’m aiming for. It’s going to be tough to tie up all the threads in four novels, because what appears on the page is only a fraction of what I know about the three worlds that appear in the Mystwalker novels. I’ll have to be ruthless about what I show, and what I don’t. Decisions, decisions.
BBB: Did you do any kind of research to determine the details of your characters lives / lifestyles?
LE: My muse needs to walk the space. And worse, she’s not satisfied with just seeing it, she’s got to receive as much sensory information as possible before she’ll permit me to write an action sequence. For example, there was a scene in The Trouble with Fate that featured a swamp, some bull rushes, and a whole bunch of mud…Yeah. I did a faceplant in the mud. Turns out, landing in stinking goo isn’t so hard. It’s the getting back up that’s a bitch.
BBB: Are you a plotser or a panster? or a Planster (a combo of both – lol)
LE: Definitely a combo. I write reams of notes–I spend at least a month fleshing out characters and backstories before I ever start writing. And like any good wannabe plotter, I diagram the story out in the three acts. Then, what do I do? Within a chapter or two, I’ve veered off course. It’s very annoying.
BBB: What types of creatures can readers expect in your world?
LE:
Faes: who don’t wear robes, sound like Cate Blanchett or have wings.
Weres: who wear threadbare jeans, have long hair and are basically too-pretty-for-words.
Amulets: with attitude.
Humans: who are, on the whole, irritating to our heroine, and thus fall into the ‘creature’ file.
BBB: What’s coming up for you in 2013?
LE:A small, mild nervous breakdown. Book 3’s deadline is late winter. Book 2’s release is July. Book 4 must be begun by summer. There are three conventions on the calendar. This writer life? It’s a trifle busier than I’d anticipated:-)
Leigh, I heard the rumour that you waited until you were 50 (gasp), before you started writing. Is that true? (Answer: uh huh).
Leigh, did you really hear Hedi speak in your ear one night, then decide to throw out 67,000 words and start all over again? Just like that? (Answer: yup.)
Leigh, if you put Hedi’s best friend, Merry, the amulet, in an enclosed space with a tiger, a moth, and a Zombie, which entity would be the last one standing? (Answer: The Asrai, of course.)

Who (that we love in The Trouble With Fate) are you going to kill off in the next book?
Hi Leigh, you are a new author to me, thank you for your post today
Thanks for dropping in for a visit, Dina. I appreciate the opportunity to meet people who might want to read about a character who would never consider herself kickass:-)
Not going to tell you!
Though there will be love, and reunions, and drama, and action, and Asrais with attitude.
Hi Leah,
What three things would your heroine never leave home without?
Three things:
1) Merry–a girl’s got to have someone to talk to.
2) A backpack–you never know what you can slip into it.
3) Her penchant for smart ass replies
I did RSVP but, I was wondering if you could would to stretch your arc to include more of your world in more books?
The worlds explode in the next book, Krista.
Can not Wait! Is it July yet?
Not by my calendar, thank heavens. I’ve got to get the third book into the publishers well before that!
Is there a genre you’d love to try but are hesitant to try? which and why?
I’m a closet historical romance junkie. I’d go there, but Hedi’s voice is pretty loud in my ear right now.
Love The Trouble With Fate – absolutely ‘unputdownable’.
How did you decide upon Heidi’s name?
Hey Michelle,
I can’t take credit for the title–that was my publisher’s concept.
Actually, you can find a little snippet of the moment Hedi Peacock’s name was chosen, at my blog: http://www.leighevans.com/faq I actually saw that scene. It never found its way into the book:-)
I know you are focused on #3 & #4 in this series, but do you have an idea for your next series? And are you thinking about the possibility of writing YA books?
Debi,
No ideas for a next series because Hedi’s world is huge. However, there’s a character that appears in THE THING ABOUT WERES, (next book in series), that deserves his own book. We’ll see if there’s a chance for that. As for YA? I have the beginnings of a story for a boy named Riley. I don’t know if it will ever see the light of day.
Would you tell us which character that is? (evil laugh here)
*grin* Nope!
I would not mind having a shirtless guy on cover #3
Debi, I’ll mention that to my editor, Holly Blanck. I’m figuring I have to give up on the shirt.
Merry is my favorite character, but you know me, I like the quirky, snarky characters.
I also Rsvp’d.
Did you really fall in the mud?
I slogged my way to the chosen place, gulped and did a header.
The one detail I forgot? The drive home. In retrospect, I should have lined the seats with garbage bags.
Hi Leigh!
Where can I get my own Merry? I really need one. I’ll take really good care of her.
Seriously, where did the idea of a living amulet come from? Merry could almost be in the horror genre. She’s capable of killing. Not your everyday good luck object or familiar.
PS. I think I’m supposed to mention that I RSVP’d.
Hey Victoria,
To get your own Asrai, all you need to do is summon a portal, travel to Merenwyn, trap an Asrai, imprison it in a hunk of stone, and then find your way back. (Don’t worry about the arrows or the mages).
In terms of literary concept, the answer is easier. Hedi needed a side-kick, preferably one who wouldn’t waste time trying to talk her out of her wilder plans. Cue the invention of a mute amulet with an attitude.
Hi!
SO since the world is so large, are there scenes and details about the characters that you know that don’t make it into the books? Care to share any?
Thanks!
I’ve got a hard-drive filled with scenes that can’t make it. The one that broke my heart was when Robson Trowbridge woke up, minus a couple of fingers, and all he could smell was death, and hurting. I wrote, in his words, exactly what happened. What he saw, what he did, what he felt.
Gutted me.
You best keep those…you never know when you are going to need a flashback scene.
Ugh, now I’m going to be constantly wondering about all the scenes on your hard drive! Curses!
Hi!
Wondering where all your inspiration comes from
And what do you do when you get stuck??
Lynn,
Sounds like you’re a writer. Okay, remember, I’m still woefully inexperienced, but here’s what I’ve noticed.
Inspiration comes when you put fear away.
All writers get stuck. I always get stuck. Every single time. I will decide that I’m the worst writer in the world. That nothing will get me out of the hole I’ve dug for myself. You know that’s really all about? My subconscious is trying to get my attention. She’s trying to tell me that I’ve gone the wrong way. Usually if I back up a bit, I’ll see it, and then I’m unstuck.
Hey Leigh!
Thank you so much for being here today with us at Bitten by Books during your busy writing schedule. We all appreciate it. Which books are out now in the series or what is the reading order?
Also, you mentioned in an email something about a love scene. Is that something we the readers can give you a “hand” with…LOL no pun intended. OMG I did just say that out loud didn’t I?
Rachel
Hey Rachel,
Here’s the reading order:
The Trouble With FAte: December 24, US & Canada. January 3, UK
The Thing About Weres: end of July, 2013 in US. UK on the heels of that.
An Incredibly Witty (and as yet unconceived)Title for Book 3: I’m thinking that’s May 2014.
The Fourth Book (the one Leigh thinks of as OMG, I Can’t Wait): God only knows, but definitely by May 2015.
Wow. Did I just write 2015? How strange…
As for the wretched Love Scene: I have tried champagne. I have tried music. I guess I’m just going to have to dive in. Submerge myself in lust.
*bink*
Leigh! I’m so happy and excited for you with The Trouble With Fate. I’m in the process of reading it and LOVE the story and think it’s very well told. Already looking forward to the next one! And I’m happy to have met you in person, you’re a lot of fun to be around and your sense of humor (snark) comes through in the book. Happy writing, my friend!
Miki,
That’s lovely to hear. Keep going–TTWF was my first book. I get better writing chops as the book progresses.
Leigh, You mention in your acknowledgements that your Beta-reader Rebecca honestly told you that “Trowbridge needed some work.” Can you tell us why that was and what you did to improve upon the character? Love the book!
(Mentioned my RSVP in a previous comment which may not post as it was pretty much a duplicate of another poster.)
Michele,
I was resisting Trowbridge. Here’s the thing: I didn’t intend to write a romance. I wanted to write a coming of age story. But Trowbridge was so–he’s very compelling once you flesh him out–and I was holding back.
For anyone who’s a fan of Trowbridge? The Thing About Weres is going to rock your world.
Now that is just mean to tease us. So before the book comes out will you be sharing any of it? Maybe chapter one?
I think you guys should get a taste before it comes out. I’m planning to ask for the right to release a couple of chapters just to ease and tease the suspense.
Because basically, I’m evil.
Well you really have written a book that can’t be pigeonholed into one genre. I’m really hoping to read more about Cordelia is the upcoming books. I think it’s wonderful that you’ve included a transgender character in the series.
Cordelia is a huge part of the series. Her role increases in the next book, and the third.
Name four things a heroine must have (in your estimation) for you to like them, writing and reading
Name four things a hero must have for you to like them, writing and reading
Heroine:
1) courage, even if she’s not aware that she has it.
2) luck, even if she doesn’t recognize it.
3) love, even if she’s not ready to accept it.
4) guts, because that’s the thing that will carry you through.
Hero:
1) must recognize an opportunity and seize it.
2) must make me smile
3) must be the guy that walks into the fire, instead of runs from it.
4) *grin* a good ass isn’t that bad either.
LOL – Great ass is always a must.
Heroines I tend to like are the independent ones that knows when to bow down to help but in no way does that make them weak. They know how to stand on their two feet.
And snark! Biting and witty personality for both. Hehe. I kinda like the personality of Vegeta on Dragonball Z. He has the bad boy quality, dangerous but his woman knows how to reign him in. LOL. Barely.
You know, in terms of the heroine question–I wrote this first book with a couple of story questions. One being: what if you didn’t know you were a hero?
We’ve read a lot hero journeys told in the male prospective.
I wanted to start with a girl who did not think of herself as hero material.
Huh, that sounds cool. To be honest I really could not see myself in the role of a hero or heroine. Why when writing you can live through it with another.
Hey Readers, my editor and I have been wrangling over this. When we first talked about a cover for The Trouble With Fate, I said, “No hot guy on the cover, with or without a shirt.” She said, “It might not be a bad idea to have a shirtless guy on the front of your book.” Time softened me. By the time we were ready to talk about the cover for The Thing About Weres, I had modified my position to “We can have a hot guy on the cover.” She said, “I know just the guy.” Now, time’s tick-tocking. I know the incomparable Holly Blanck is going to coming up with some terrific ideas for the third book’s cover, and I’m wondering–just how many of you would actually prefer to see a shirtless hot guy on the cover? Can I have a head count?
Nothing wrong with a hot hunky shirtless guy on the cover. If it is done much like Jaci Burton’s Play by Play books or Joan Swan’s Fever. Rawr!
Well, now we’ve got 2 for the shirtless guy. Any dissenters out there yet?
Hot guy on cover check
Merry on the cover!
Cordelia on the cover!
I would love to write a novella for Cordelia. A love story, I think…
Cordelia wearing Merry on the cover!
I was about to start the next question with ‘Hey Girlfriends’ and then it occurred to me–I wonder if any of my readers are male? So, here’s the question: are there any guys out there who’ve read The Trouble With Fate? Hello, calling all men…
Not a guy… But occasionally I can get my husband to read romance. Depends on the author. He LOVES Sherrilyn Kenyon’s Dark Hunter but he loves her League books. And he likes L.A. Banks. Mostly he goes on my recommendation but I haven’t read the book yet.
So far, I know of one man who has read the book. A writer friend of mine called Travis Pennington.
My son read it too–or so he says–but he was in university then, so I”m thnking he was more like man-in-training at that point.
Lol – I have three sons (14, 11, and soon to be 8 in 12 days) and only one likes to read. The youngest is too young yet but I am holding out hope. When he was a toddler he would snuggle up against me while I read with a picture book
Hey People Who’ve Read The Book, who’s your favorite character?
Sorry haven’t read it yet… so many books so little time!
Go make time. *Grin* Just a suggestion…
If you could find a theme song for the book and/or characters – what would it be?
Sometimes I have to have music to help keep me in the writing mood.
I listened a lot to Pink’s Funhouse, as well as Eddie Vedder’s soundtrack to Into the Wild. But really, I’ve never attached a single song to any character in the first book.
Though I did in the second. There is a character–a man–who I can’t think of without hearing the Verve’s Velvet Morning.
For some reason I think Trowbridge would be an Eddie Vedder/Pearl Jam fan.
Well, let’s put it this way. Trowbridge’s voice? It’s Eddie’s.
I almost asked a question that referenced a spoiler. Whoops. This is why agents shouldn’t participate in these things. Muah! You’re so fun to “listen to”.
Ladies and Gents–
I present to you my incredible agent, Deidre Knight. She is the reason that Hedi lives in print.
It was my lucky day, that morning I entered her contest…
Well, you’re sweet to say, but I personally think it was MY lucky day. Not only did I get YOU, but also all your wonderful talent, these fabulous characters, and a world that I fangirl like crazy. What could be better?!?
Brad Pitt saying, “meh, who needs Angie?”
Hi Leigh! It’s so great hear that there will be up to four more books in this series, I still need to get myself a copy (I know, what’s taking me so long huh?) lol…been reading a lot of awesome reviews for TTWF
.
My question is, who are some of your favorite heroines in Urban Fantasy?
I’m a fan of Charlaine Harris’s Sookie, Patricia Briggs’s Anna, Kim Harrison’s Rachel, Suzanne McLeod’s Genny, Chloe Neil’s Merit, Karen Chance’s heroine Dorry, and Darynda Jones’s Charley. Just to name a few.
Anwering the author’s question:
1) Regarding the shirtless hot guy…my honest opinion is I dislike it, and find it cheesy. There are tons of those type of covers out there. I really like the cover for TTWF, it’s simple and pretty. When I first saw it, I was intrigued and went to read the synopsis which I ended up loving as well.
2) I’m a girl lol.
Sorry, Van–I meant to hit reply under your comment. Scroll down for my answer.
You see? A dissenter. I’m glad you liked the back cover blurb. My editor, Holly Blanck, myself, my son JB, and my agent Deidre Knight sweated over it. However, I got really lucky with the next one. And I made a new friend at SMP called Betsy…
Have any of your books been translated in other languages yet?
Not yet, Minna. There’s been talk of a Fae translation, but I haven’t seen it yet…*grin*
Thanks for the interview! What’s your favorite scene in The Trouble with Fate?
Favourite scene: (no, I didn’t spell that wrong, I’m Canadian and we use Brit spelling) The courtyard scene. That hurt to write, but it came out clean.
just how many of you would actually prefer to see a shirtless hot guy on the cover? As long as he matches the description in the book and he’s not headless in the cover (I’m not a fan of covers where they leave out the head), definitely yes.
Hey People Who’ve Read The Book, who’s your favorite character? I’m afraid I haven’t read it yet.
Honestly I don’t care one way or the other if there is a hot guy on the cover. Now if he is there of course I will drool and sometimes need a bib .
It really is hard to say who my favorite character is because I love so many of them. I really love Hedi, she is so conflicted and damaged that I can’t wait to see her believe in herself, to see the amazing person she really is. Trowbridge is a really good guy with at pure heart that is super hot how can you not like that? Merry doesn’t speak but boy she is snarky and is actually quite vocal, she reminds me of someone I know. She is a great twist to a BFF.
Cordelia is amazing she can put her own stuff aside for the greater good and and not to many people do that without complaint, but she does and she just keeps on going. She has been treated poorly in her world yet it makes her stronger not weaker. Plus she is sassy.
All I can say is go read this book you will be hooked.
Minna: Getting the man to match the description is very, very hard. It’s amazing how people interpret the description found within the pages. I know this, having looked at the 2nd cover. Though the man is appealing, he’s not my Trowbridge:-)
Krista: You’ll love Trowbridge in the second book. That’s what I keep hearing, anyhow:-)
How much of you do you think you write into your characters and do you do it intentionally?
I like the cover just the way it is
.
I don’t think you can erase yourself completely–you’ll see me show up in segments within each character. But I’m not Hedi. I wouldn’t find myself in some of the situations she does, nor would I do what she does.
What inspires you to write a story?
Do you have fave author who becomes your refference?
Answer #1: the deadline on my contract.
Answer #2: No, per se. There are many authors who I admire, but in the end, you have to write in our own voice and style.
Hi,
is there a genre you have not written in yet that you would love to?
Perhaps a hefty tome on quantum physics?
What authors have inspired you?
Jim Butcher, Jim Butcher, Jim Butcher.
There’s one.
Congratulations on the new book. It is definitely going on my reading list.
If you could be a nonhuman character in an urban fantasy novel, what type of character would you be? Witch, fairy, shapeshifter, vampire???
Not a vampire because of that whole dying-first thing. Fairy sounds good until you consider how their woo-woo magic screws up cell phones. Witch is appealing but I can’t even remember how to say my Starbucks order. Good luck trying to remember a spell. Shapeshifter? Maybe. But I already hate shaving my legs. I wouldn’t mind being cat though. They go where they want, have nice fur, give people evil eyes, get lots of strokes, play with mice…
Do you do the “old fashioned” writing with pen and a paper or do you type out your drafts on a computer?
I’m a horribly wasteful writer, Steph. I throw out 4 out of 5 words. So that’s why I usually write on the computer. BUT…if I’m stuck, I’ve often found that it’s very useful to grab a pen, go somewhere quiet and write it out.
Hi!
I figure it’s both easy, but hard, with creating your own world. On one hand you can have it any way you want, but on the other, you can have it any way you want – and have to keep it all straight. But I’m not a writer, so… how is creating your own universe? 
Lois
About the shirtless guy thing… I look at covers and stories as two different things – after all, we all know covers don’t always match the inside, or the people match the descriptions of the people inside, etc. That said… I admit it, I love shirtless guys – bring one on!
Lois
On the plus side, if I want to say, “And lo, there be the door to the next universe!”, it is done. Bam. There’s the door. Except, I have to figure out the door’s colour, shape, reason for existence, key, and entrance password. Oh. And then I have to remember it. Double oh. *grin*
I don’t mind seeing a sexy guy on a book cover, but I prefer a creative cover, like on The Trouble With Fate
Bonnie, my pal, my friend, my fellow-taste-person—-wait until you see the next cover. I love the next cover.
What a great response to your choice of actor. I find that I do not want to see pictures people use for inspiration or what fans pick for how they see the hero. My imagination is always SOOO much better!
Falling into mud sounds fun too!! =)
I hope your Trowbridge is everything you want him to be:-)
Falling in mud is one of those things you want a backup-button for. Halfway toward the mud your brain can’t help but think, “No. Oh, my, no.”
Hot shirtless guy on the cover….umm, ME! I am not ashamed to enjoy some washboard abs and nice pecs.
*grin*
What is your favourite genre to read?
Cheryl, I read everything. I’ll admit to being a historical romance junkie, who has spent many hours of happiness reading Eloisa James, Mary Balogh, Laura Kinsale, Lisa Kleypas, Elizabeth Hoyt, Anne Gracie…damn, I know I’m missing a couple of favorites. But on the other hand? I like Bernard Cornwell’s Sharpe series (oh, do buy that), and Lee Child’s Jack Reacher. And countless mystery authros. Basically, I read everything.
Did you learn anything about yourself after writing this book?
Aori H.
That’s a superb questions. Yes.
I learned that I can learn.
I learned that I can change.
I learned that it was good to want more.
I learned that to get more, you had to push yourself.
And I learned that I get very pissy writing action sequences:-)
’5
Aha!
Thanks to you, I can now ask another type of a question!
Oh, the format is a little bit different for this site (haven’t been here in forever…almost).
I’ll answer one of your questions regarding the book cover.
I would prefer for it to be something artsy rather than a shirtless, hot guy on the cover. The market is over saturated with those covers and I would be a bit embarrassed to walk around with a cover like that. A bit more meaningful imagination please!
Aori H.
Overall, there’s been an interesting variance of response to the shirtless question. It looks like there is no obvious choice. Which means, I’ll follow my original instincts. Trowbridge may keep his shirt.
I liked through the comments as well and found it really interesting too! I thought a lot more would opt out of the shirtless cover but I was wrong. We women seem to like our handsome men without no darn shirt getting in the way of eye candy.
looked*
This has been a lot of fun. My thanks to all–you’ve made my first ‘live’ blog interview such a positive event. My poor brain has been taxed, and now I’m going to collapse into bed:-) Happy reading, folks!
Leigh
Do you picture a certain playlist when you wrote this book?
Is there anything wacky you’d like to add to your author bio that’s completely untrue? For funsies? Like ‘The author is from Quebec. She is married, has a few dogs, a few cats, a few kids, and spends every other Wednesday carving ponies out of bars of soap.
You woke up this morning and realized you had been reincarnated as a pair of shoes.
Describe yourself.
If we looked under your bed, what would we find?
Hot guys with no shirts definitely!
However, don’t do the headless ones
While I am a female reader, I share and swap paperbacks with my cousin. He definitely reads this type of fiction. When we were young, we would read in my grandparents hay loft. I would read read his Hardy Boys and he read my Nancy Drew.
What is your favorite part of the story process?
What is the most fun thing you have done in the name of research?
What was the hardest part to wright?
I RSVPed
I Love a Good shirtless Guy on the cover of books
You are a new to me author. I love books like yours I will be off to check them out.
p.winmill@hotmail.com
What’s your writing schedule like? Do you spend a certain number of hours a day writing?
Half Fae and Half were? Why were you motivated to create this hybrid heroine?
Sadly, I have bought books just because it had a hot guy on the cover. I have even bought books after not liking the first book by the author. I keep hoping the book would be as good as the cover.
What was your favorite childhood book?
Have you ever written fan fiction? For what fandom?
A hot guy (shirtless or not) on a cover usually means for me that this is a specific kind of book – focused on a romance, not plot, that I’ll read, enjoy and will pass on to someone else. More creative covers seem to be with books that have wider plots. So it depends on what kind your book is.
What’s your favorite paranormal book?
Did you watch a lot of Bruins vs. Canadiens hockey games as a kid? That could explain the accent.
Great interview!
Whether or not I want a shirtless hot guy on a cover depends on the pose and lighting, and of course his face. Being able to SEE a face makes a difference, too–those headless torso shots are creepy!
This book looks great! On my list.
Question:
Vanilla, chocolate, or strawberry? Or…?
If you could spend the night (not necessarily romantically) with any of your characters, who would you choose and why?
Hi Leigh!!! Thanks for stopping by. I’ve never heard of a living amulet. I even googled it to see if I missed some mythology somewhere. Is this something you invented or is based on folklore?
Do you prefer e-book or print books?
I haven’t got to read “Trouble with Fate” but it’s on the top of my list. It sounds like it will be a very good read.
To answer your questions: Yes, I love looking at hot guys on the cover, but if a cover is interesting and grabs your attention, then that’s what you need. I don’t know if any males read your book or not.
You’re a new author to me. This story sounds very interesting. I am very curious about the amulet and many other things, so this book is on my TBR pile. I love the cover. A hot shirtless guy is great for cover, but no picture lets my imagination go a little wild. Why did you wait to write?
You are a new author to me. Cant wait to check out your book’s.
How many book series due you have out or plan to wright?
How do you motivate or get into a writing mindset….music, tv, movies, a nap ?
Shirtless guys on the cover are overdone, love them but don’t choose a book because of them.
I am a Girlfriend! but I know a couple of guys that would read this book.
Do you have a favorite drink that you like to have while writing?
Hi, I am new to your books. What is your inspiration when you are writing.
I would love to see a shirtless guy on the cover
