ever expecting.

GUEST POST
What can we expect from you in the future?
---You can expect so much! I’m a
little like the energizer bunny when it comes to writing. I have the
two series right now that I’ll have published and finished by the
end of 2020. I also have a contemporary paranormal series based in a
town that I’ll have written by the end of 2020, but won’t
probably be published until 2021. That idea was something I had
started even before Ghost Revelations but it’s taken a while to
develop the story.
I have a stand-alone fantasy I’m
writing that’s based vaguely on the idea of Jack and the Giant
Beanstalk. That book is looking to be at least four hundred or more
pages.
I also have a few note books full of
ideas that I just need to develop. I have an idea that has the first
few pages already written for a twist on a zombie apocalypse. The
only ideas that I struggle with are Christmas stories. I’d love to
write a few short stories for next Christmas.
I’m really hoping that I can attend a
few writer/reader conferences as an author. That would be a DREAM.
Do your characters seem to hijack
the story or do you feel like you have the reigns of the story?
Convince us why you feel your book is a must read.
--My characters completely hijack the
story. I have no reigns whatsoever. I’ll go in with an idea but
they’ll take over and it’ll come out totally different. You
should really read my books or my characters will be sad!
What did you edit out of this book?
---For Ghost Revelations, I actually
took out a few chapters that just didn’t work with the overall
story. I did add an extra chapter back in though. I saved the
chapters I took out to see if I could use in the future.
What is your writing process? For
instance do you do an outline first? Do you do the chapters first?
----I’m what’s known as a
‘pantser’. For the most part, I’ll write down an idea, do a
vague outline of what I want the story to work off of, and then I let
my fingers fly! I do write in chapters, I can’t write outside of
chapters, it has to go in order.
Do you prefer to write in silence or
with noise? Why?
--I can do both, but I prefer to have
music going on in the background. If it’s too quiet, I can
sometimes get bored and unfocused. But if there’s a tv going? I’ll
get so distracted I stop writing altogether.
How long on average does it take you
to write a book?
--My first book, Ghost Revelations,
took about five months. Aryana’s Journey only took two. I’m
thinking the second book in the Ghost Dud Series is going to take
about two months as well I started earlier this month but, I’m only
about half way done with it.
---Oh, yes. It is there! I’ve run
into it a few times. The longest was about two weeks and it was
HORRIBLE! Not being able to think of anything to write felt like I
was missing a limb.
