What
is your book about?
The book is an example
of how greed never pays off.
·
Was
there any research involved in your work?
Yes, I had to get well
acquainted with the Regency Era, you know, Jane Austin’s world, because the
story takes place in a world that mimics the period. The research turned out to
be a lot of fun, for example did you know that a footman laid out the table,
served the meal and tea, and assisted the butler?
·
Do
you need visual media to describe people or places? (Some authors use pics. out
of magazines)
No, I don’t use media
to help me with character descriptions because when the characters present
themselves to me I see them clearly in my mind and can describe what I see.
·
Favorite
snack when writing.
I don’t particularly
snack on food when writing, but I do drink beverages such as espresso coffee,
hot water with a dry bay leaf, a variety of different teas such as black
cherry, raspberry, cinnamon hibiscus and watch out if there’s chocolate in the
house especially dark chocolate.
·
Once
a character is fully developed do you set them free or do they still dance
around your mind?
There’s nothing more
rewarding than a character you absolutely fall in love with. Kendíka is still
on my mind hence White Swans became a series. I have two other characters I
can’t let go of, but their story has not been edited. Richard and Asmifsf have
been with me for the past thirteen years.
·
Is
the Thesaurus one of your best writing friends?
The thesaurus is an
absolute friend. I don’t think I could live without it or the dictionary.
·
What
project(s) are you working on now?
I always work on
several projects at a time, it somehow prevents writers block from attacking my
mind. I just finished a sweet Christmas novella that will be going into a box
set with other authors. I’m writing another romance that needs a home in some
box set. I have a steamy wine romance to write for another box set I’ve joined.
I need to buckle down and write the second book of White Swans and I’m in the
process of editing Dragons in the Resistance another young adult novel. I do
love keeping busy.
