Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am an author that has always believes in the unseen mysteries of the natural and unnatural worlds. I'm a High Priestess of the Coven of Butterflies in Lithonia, Georgia and I hold a Degree in Theology from Woolston Steen Theological Seminary. When I'm not writing or reading tarot cards I spend most of my time reading, cooking, and traveling to my happy place, New Orleans. LA. But in my quiet time I enjoy watching fantasy TV shows and movies with my wife Kimberly and spoiled pitbull Lady. I have written 8 books, Crimson is the first published.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Crimson, Huntress of the Succubi. I have two loves, magic, and New Orleans. These two things definitely inspired the Huntress of the Succubi book series. The story centers around a family that has been blessed by the gods with supernatural powers to protect mankind. I infused a lot of firsthand magical references into the story line which led to deep dive into Creole history and beliefs.
