GUEST POST
What inspired you to write this book?
I was invited into an anthology where
we were writing from the monster’s point of view from a horror
movie. I chose the Angry Princess from Thirteen Ghosts. I’m still
not sure what drew me to that character specifically, but I knew I
had to write her back story.
Once I finished her story, I knew that
it wasn’t complete and I started from the beginning. Dana’s story
is actually the 7th part of the book, Beauty Queen. I felt
like the ghosts all deserved a story from their pov and how they
became part of the ghosts in the house.
What can we expect from you in the
future?
I am currently working on several
projects, including an Aladdin re-telling with my best friend and
co-author Ally Cole. I am also working on a Detective series and a
book about a Valkyrie and Ragnarok.
Can you tell us a little bit about
the characters in Black Zodiac?
Each character comes from a different
time and place. Susan was a high school cheerleader from a town
called Unionville, MO. Rosalyn and Abraham traveled with a freak
show. Kyle is a killer from Iowa. All of the characters have their
own unique vision and personality. Then there’s Bastian. His
character is the only one that rides through the entire book. He is
the ghost hunter that brings them all together.
What did you enjoy most about
writing this book?
I enjoyed being able to tell the
different stories and bringing all the ghosts together. It was
interesting to see how each one grew and developed into who they
were.
Do your characters seem to hijack
the story or do you feel like you have the reigns of the story?
I am never in charge of the story.
Every once in a while I think I’m in charge, but then they show me
the error of my ways by taking the wheel and going left field.
Convince us why you feel your book
is a must read.
Black Zodiac is not for the faint of
heart. It will answer questions of the thirteen ghosts and keep you
on the edge of your seat for the entire book. If you like a good
scare or want to be grossed out, this is definitely for you. It had
everything in it. Humor, suspense, horror, romance, supernatural,
ghosts, the list goes on. It is a book that will stay with you after
you finish it.
If your book had a candle, what
scent would it be?
A black magic smell or death and decay…
