What was the hardest part about writing this book? I made a mistake when I started the book. I thought I could write a romance. So I wrote the book as a romance. When I finished, I thought the whole story was boring and rather flat. I didn’t want to read it, so why would anyone else? I decided I better stick with thrillers, because that’s what I’m good at. And I threw in a serial killer. It took a lot of work but I’m extremely pleased with the book now!
Will you write others in this same genre? I’ve had enough people threaten my future as a writer if I don’t write more books for this main character that I’ve decided to make a series of the book. Rather exciting, actually. I have an additional four books plotted, but it will be the kind of series where each novel is a story in and of itself, not dependent on the others. Like the Stephanie Plum books.
How much of the book is realistic? The book takes place during modern times in a normal high school with a normal girl. There’s a serial killer, which could very well be realistic. But it also revolves around Jayne’s psychic powers and her more-than-mortal bloodline. Definitely not realistic.
Have you included a lot of your life experiences, even friends, in the plot? No, not at all. At least not in this book. My PERILOUS series has lots of life and friend experiences in it.
How important do you think villains are in a story? Extremely! In fact my villains are usually so multi-faceted that they deserve their own story. No book is complete without a villain!
Can we expect any more books from you in the future? Of course! I’m a writer. It’s not what I do, it’s what I am. I couldn’t stop if I wanted to.
Have you started another book yet? Which one would you like me to talk about? I just started the next adventure for Jayne, the MC in INEVITABLE. Hopefully it will be out in about a year!
