Can you
give us a brief overview of your latest book? Is it part of a series?
Closure explores
what happens when you are confronted with that one person who meant the world
to you in your past. What if you
get a second chance? It is a stand
-alone book
I love Riley because she tries to be all strong, but inside
she's soft and squishy.
What is
your writing process? Do you listen to music or do you like silence?
I am in the car a lot during the day visiting my accounts so
I have playlists I listen to for each story. When I write I either do it in silence or with Bravo in the
background.
Do you
outline your story or just go where your muse takes you?
Rough outline and then play it by ear the rest of the way.
Did you
hire an editor to review your manuscript before publishing?
Even though I'm with a small publisher, I did hire an
editor. I think it is necessary to
the process, no matter what path you take, traditional publishing or self
publishing.
Did you
hire a graphic artist for your book cover? Were you actively involved in the
creation?
My publisher created the cover, but it is me that you see on
the cover. My publisher thought I
looked like my character.
What kinds
of marketing [twitter, facebook, blog, forums] are you involved with for
promoting your book(s)?
I do a lot of blog hops, facebook etc. I love blog tours and I'm trying some
advertising.
Do you
find it difficult to juggle your time between marketing your current book and
writing your next book?
Yes, the marketing takes more time than the writing. I try to look at the marketing as a job
and relegate it to a few hours per day so I can write and enjoy myself at
night.
Besides
writing, do you have any other passions?
Shopping – I know that sounds terrible, but I lost 85 lbs a
few years ago, and I love shopping because I can fit!
What’s
next for you?
I'm finishing my novel and started a new one. I am also expanding a story that was in
an anthology that will be a stand alone.
