Welcome to
my Reading
Hi, Thank
you for inviting me, I’m delighted to be here.
Comfortable?
Wonderful. Now let’s get started.
Tell us about
your favorite character from your books.
Dr. Dora Adler, the novel’s
heroine. I love her sense of humor or wit despite the high-octane stress of
dealing with the undead, mad scientists, werewolves and her unusual awakening
gifts. Even with an alpha werewolf asserts his authority, my way or the highway, little red riding hood, she is determined to
save those she loves.
Tell us about
your current/upcoming release. What inspired this story?
Apocalyptic
Moon is a dystopian paranormal romance. It takes place soon after the zombie
apocalypse has wiped out most of humanity. I was inspired by my love of the
werewolf and zombie genre. I love
crossing genres.
When in the
day/night do you write? How long per day?
Daytime. A
typical 9-5 job, but one that takes place in a fantastical world. I write until
2 or 3, with yoga, lunch, coffee and or dog walk breaks. In the afternoon I
promote.
What is the hardest part of writing your books?
Hard to say.
I enjoy the rough draft and the numerous editing. It’s hard when I’m completely
done because I miss the characters and hate to see them go off into the sunset.
Until I meet the next set of characters for my next book.
What does your
family think of your writing career?
They are very
supportive.
What do you think
makes a good story?
Good
character development, a good plot and a well developed universe.
Plotter or Pantser? Why? Panster.
When I sit to write my characters take over
and off we go on their journey. When I put on music to write it’s as though I’m
channeling from another universe.
How do you
develop your plots and your characters? Do you use any set formula?
I save formulas for my
scientist days. When I go on a run or long hike, the story plot comes to me
like a movie. My panster nature lets the characters move in and away we go.
What book are you
reading now? Any favorite authors/books you want to do a shout out for?
A non-fiction, The Species
Seekers by Richard Conniff (I’m a bit of a Victorian naturalist type). I love
Diane Gabaldon (Outlander), Kresley Cole and too too too many others to name.
When I’m writing my first draft I only read non-fiction, if anything.
What do you do to
unwind and relax?
Any outdoors. Run, hike,
kayak, but what really helps me relax is working with raptors (hawks and owls).
Working one on one with a powerful and dangerous bird is very zen. My brain can
rest from writing, editing and promoting.
Morning Person or
Night Person?
Smiles. You
are asking a birder. Morning, but I’ve been know to howl the night away with my
wolf friends.
Coffee, tea or
other drink to get you moving in the morning?
Takes a long
deep breath. Strong Coffee.
What is coming up
from you in 2013? Anything you want to tease us with?
I have a
release in my Wolf Maiden Saga series, a paranormal historical titled, Lycan
Gladiator. Book cover reveal coming soon or you can take a quiet peek inside my
website.
I just
finished the book 2 in my After the Bane series, which will be Rave, my raven
shifter’s story. Cleaning it up for my editor.
Anything else you
want to add?
I have volunteered at a wolf sanctuary and do raptor rehab. I also teach
online workshops on wolf lore ancient falconry and animal lore for Romance
Writers of America and other writer groups. If you are interested in my workshops,
please contact me.My website, blog, social media and book trailer:

Ravaged by a global zombie pandemic, humanity’s survival
depends on the secret society of shifters, but can they be trusted?
Dr. Dora Adler’s
life has been in disarray since the beginning of the zombie apocalypse, but
when she gets bitten by one of the undead her whole world is turned upside
down. Held captive in a secret underground lab, the tall, muscular hunk in the
next cell is her only hope for salvation. Unfortunately, he claims to be a
werewolf. Yeah, and she’s supposedly a witch.
Dirk Gunderson is an alpha Arbor pack
werewolf. Captured and collared, he’s sold to the zombie lab in hopes his blood
serum can create a vaccine. He needs to escape, but not without the hot little
brunette witch.
In the midst of enemy werewolves and the hordes of
undead, Dirk and Dora’s sexual tension ignites a blaze hotter than the desert
highway. Along their journey, they battle
the inevitable: a werewolf must never take a witch as a mate.
