What inspires you to write romance books?<\/b>
\nI believe Forever Love can happen to any of us.<\/p>\n
Tell us about how you write:<\/b>
\nI begin by developing the characters. Soon an outline takes shape, with unusual story problems. I write my novels with an eye toward emotional depth to ensure the reader stays glued to the pages. The number of 4- and 5-star reviews I’ve received on GoodReads and Amazon makes the job of writing a sheer joy.<\/p>\n
Do you listen (or talk to) to your characters?<\/b>
\nI interview characters in the first person. It’s rather like writing in a diary while becoming each character. This process can go on for several months before Chapter One appears.<\/p>\n
What advice would you give other writers?<\/b>
\nJoin a critique group. Read often and well, and across genres. Select a time to write every day, and stick to the schedule.<\/p>\n
How did you decide how to publish your books?<\/b>
\nNew York publishers weren’t sure whether to shelve my books as contemporary fiction or romance. I chose to publish independently in order to build my own readership outside the constraints of a physical bookstore.<\/p>\n
What do you think about the future of book publishing?<\/b>
\nIndependently published books will continue to win awards and find readers tired of “same old, same old” in traditionally published works.<\/p>\n
What genres do you write:<\/b>: Romance, Contemporary Fiction, Mystery<\/p>\n
What formats are your books in<\/b>: Both eBook and Print<\/p>\n
