1. Is there a
particular genre you prefer to read when you aren't busy writing?
I'm a huge paranormal romance fan. If it has a hero or heroine with claws,
fangs, fur, wings, or supernatural powers....I'm in!
2. Is there another book
in your future?
Yes, I'm always writing!
I'm releasing the fourth in my wiccan-were-bear series, A Bond of
Brothers, on August 24th, and the fourth in my Wolf's Mate series will be
released in October. I'm also in the
process of editing the second necklace series book, which I hope to release in
the fall as well.
3. Your book has time
travel in it. What inspired you to go that route?
I read several time-travel books and wondered why no one had
thought to take a character back to a Native American tribe. When I couldn’t find what I wanted to read, I
decided to write it myself!
4. What motivated you
to go Indie? Are you enjoying the journey?
I hadn’t heard of self-publishing before last year, but I
liked the idea of being in control of my book and not going through traditional
routes. I found a beta-reader and with
her support, I pub’d my first novella, A Curve of Claw in the fall of
2011. I love writing and publishing my
own books, the freedom is incredible. I
can publish as often as I want and have control over every aspect, from
character names to cover design to marketing.
5. Your story
involves 3 brothers and one woman. Do you consider this erotica?
Although the three brothers share one wife, there isn’t true
ménage-play, and for me, that’s where I think a book with multiple partners
crosses from romance into erotica. So
while I don’t necessarily consider it an erotica story, some distributors do
just because it contains multiple partners.
6. Is writing a hobby
or a lifelong dream?
A little of both.
I’ve been writing since I was a kid, but never had the courage to step
out and send something to a publisher.
I’m very blessed that something I love doing so much has become a career
and the culmination of something I wanted to do for a great portion of my life.
Include an excerpt or
blurb from the book.
When a university job interview goes south, Carrie Wade
isn’t certain that she’ll ever find work in her field of ancient Native
American Culture. Knowing the only job waiting for her is waitressing at a
coffee house, Carrie indulges in a post-disappointment shopping trip. An old
necklace in an antique store window catches her eye and she immediately feels
as if she cannot walk away without owning it. The very last thing she needs to
do is squander her savings by investing in a necklace that may have, at one
time, belonged to one of the tribes she studied…but she can’t help herself.
When she tries on the precious necklace at home, she
passes out and wakes up in the tent of the necklace’s original owners, three
Native American tribesmen from the late 1600s. Will she be able to get back
home to the future, or will she find out that the one place she was always
meant to be was back in time as the tribe’s bride?
This novella contains m/f/m/m interaction, three handsome
brothers that will do anything for each other and their woman, and a magical
necklace that brings them all together.
