Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’ve been seriously writing for seven years, but first published last year. There are currently four books in the K-pop romance series, and my young adult fantasy, Princess of the Deep, a mermaid-wizard Romeo Juliette story is being released serially on the fictionite app.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
A few years ago I was getting in Kpop (Korean Pop Music) and I made some teen friends. These friends wanted me to write them book with them as the main characters, so I did. Celebrity Superhero was for my friend Abby who loved Kpop and manga.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Yes. I get up at 5 am. It sucks, but it gets the job done. 😉
What authors, or books have influenced you?
My first book love was Harry Potter, and it always will be. But I started dreaming of writing after reading Twilight and realizing Stephanie Meyer was a stay-at-home mom like me. I thought if she could do it, I could, too.
What are you working on now?
Mostly my serial novel, but I’m writing a box set of Korean themed book with some of my author friends. I’m also going to release the final book in my Kpop series this year. #fangirlproblems
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
I mostly use Facebook. It’s a double edged sword sometimes, but I’m addicted. I love Instagram and use Twitter occasionally as well.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Yes. Take the time to learn your craft. Get good beta readers who know what they’re talking about. Go to writer’s conferences. And even then, keep improving.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Everything will be okay when it’s over. If it’s not okay, it’s not over.
What are you reading now?
Beautiful Creatures. It’s an older book, but well written. My only complaint is the all-white cast.
What’s next for you as a writer?
Hopefully, a lot. One thing I know is that I’ll never stop writing. It’s the thing that makes me the most happy and fulfilled, and that’s the meaning to life.
What is your favorite book of all time?
Harry Potter
