MY WRITING PROCESS


Thanks to Elsa Winckler for the invitation to join the blog tour. Do visit her website: www.elsawinckler.com and her

Look out for blogs from these wonderful authors, Mary Buckham, Cassandra L Shaw and Rachael Thomas.
What am I working on?

My first book, Alien Mine will be published by Black Opal Books this year. After serious second book jitters I finished the rough draft of Alien under Cover and are editing it. I am also editing the first book in a trilogy I am writing about angels and zombies. I am plotting the second and third book for that series and writing the rough draft of the second book.

How does my work differ from others of its genre?

I write paranormal and I’ve noticed the trilogy I’m writing have a strong fantasy/adventure feeling.

Why do I write what I do?

I have read romance since I was a little girl and still love it. Paranormal will always remain my favorite genre to read and to write. That said I have ideas written down and half written books for any genre you can mention as long as it is romance.

How does my writing process work?

I work full time so that means I do my writing after work. I normally get home about five then I relax for an hour and then from six to ten I write or edit or plot. Saturdays I try to write six hours and Sundays four. The good thing about these long hours and the fact that I stick to it is that it allows me a social life as well. If I take a Saturday to visit or go to the movies it is not a problem because of all the hours I have put in already.

 

Please tell me about your writing process. I love to learn from other authors.
