About the Author<\/b>
\nA former psychologist, Normandie has always been fascinated by human behavior. She loves writing quirky characters that are all too human. Fiber arts, baking, and Pinterest are a few of her favorite pastimes. She lives on a farm with a passel of kids, an adorable husband, and a pet pig who\u2019s crazy for Red Bull.<\/p>\n

What inspires you to write romance books?<\/b>
\nMy husband inspires me to write romantic fiction. He is way more romantic than I am!<\/p>\n

Tell us about how you write:<\/b>
\nI tend to outline and then write whatever scene strikes me that day. I’m not at all linear in how I write. I use Scrivener so I can move scenes around and keep everything organized.<\/p>\n

Do you listen (or talk to) to your characters?<\/b>
\nNo, but my stories come to me like a movie playing in my head.<\/p>\n

What advice would you give other writers?<\/b>
\nKeep writing. Someone once told me that writing is a game of attrition, and I believe that’s true. Just keep going!<\/p>\n

How did you decide how to publish your books?<\/b>
\nWhen I got started I went with a publisher because I didn’t know about any other options. Now that I’ve had several books published I’m embarking on my first self-publishing project, and I’m really enjoying the process so far.<\/p>\n

What do you think about the future of book publishing?<\/b>
\nI think the market for eBooks will grow steadily as will global markets.<\/p>\n

What genres do you write:<\/b>: Erotic Romance, both Contemporary and Historical<\/p>\n

What formats are your books in<\/b>: Both eBook and Print<\/p>\n
