Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’ve been published since 2009 with Harlequin, Tule, Pan Macmillan (Momentum) and Ellora’s Cave, with around thirty books written to date – some of which I have my rights back and need to republish.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Kadin. I simply love dragon books, love action and adventure. Combining that with aliens looking for their breeder mate, and I’m in heaven!
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I love to hand write and would say 50% of all my work is done that way first.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
So many! But I guess paranormal books influenced me the most with books like Kelley Armstrong’s, Bitten, and Stephanie Meyers, The Host, as just a few examples.
What are you working on now?
I’m working on more books for the Dragons of Riddich series. Book 1 (Asher) is out now for pre-order, and book 2 will follow soon after! Kadin is the prequel to this series.
