What's the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Wolf of Ashes?
When I was completing my last series, Supernatural Legacy, the main character in the series was captured in a supernatural prison, and I wondered: What if there were another prisoner who didn't deserve to be there? What would her story be? The idea for Dark Magic Shifters grew from there.
If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of Wolf of Ashes, what would they be?
The main female character's theme song would be "My Heart Has Teeth" by deadmau5, and the Keeper of Dark Magic's theme song would be "Enter Sandman" by Metallica 😉
What's your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?
I love reading high fantasy romance. I love writing it too! But I'm equally in love with paranormal and urban fantasy romance and all the fast-paced action that comes with it.
What books are on your TBR pile right now?
Fractured Mates by Heather Renee, Gilded Wings by Jaymin Eve, House of Ash and Shadow by Leia Stone, and Rise of an Empire by Jessica Wayne.
What scene in your book was your favorite to write?
My favorite scene in the story is when the two main characters travel (magically) to Australia and experience a beautiful Australian beach, a wild thunderstorm, and some Aussie slang. I'm Australian so it was a rare treat to include a little of my home country in this book.
Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)
My cat insists on sitting on my lap when I write. If my lap isn't available, she sits on the keyboard!
Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?
My favourite motto is: You can do this. It comes in handy when I'm second-guessing my writing, if I'm having a day where I can't seem to make the words work, if I'm uncertain or have to change a plot point, or if I'm halfway through edits and it feels like they'll never be done. Needless to say, it comes in handy a lot!
If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?
Darkness is never complete. There's always light.

What's the story behind the story? What inspired you to write The Keepers of the Sacred Elements?
I wanted to challenge myself after I was reminded of how much that I loved to write in my youth, so I took the challenge starting in 2020 after nagging encouragement from my sister. I thought, let’s be as creative as possible and let my imagination run a little wild, and that is what I did.
If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of The Keepers of the Sacred Elements, what would they be?
I’m free–The soup dragon’s, It’s the End of the World as we know it–REM and Lost - NF. featuring Hopsin.
What's your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?
At the moment I am big into apocalyptic, post-apocalyptic, and zombie fiction, which is definitely a far cry from what I have written in my first work.
What books are on your TBR pile right now?
I have waiting in queue the Series of Adrian’s Undead Diary by Chris Phibrook, as well as the new Scott Medbury called, “The Drifter Series,” and I am currently reading A Treasury of Irish Literature, which features some poems and stories of great Irish writers.
What scene in your book was your favorite to write?
I surprised myself with Gigi finding her old friend Acamar, the star–I hadn’t planned on that and it has sent my imagination wild for up-coming children’s book ideas which are fermenting and brewing in the back of my mind. This kind of happened more than once throughout the story and I allowed myself to explore and expand and deviate from my story arcs.
Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)
Maybe I have more finnicky than quirky habits. Usually, I am a pretty easy-going and flexible person. Unfortunately, this isn’t the case when I sit down to write, I am a bit like the grinch. I have certain expectations such as no noise, perfect temperature, and no interruptions.
Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?
Shut your eyes and do it anyway! Meaning do what you scares you regardless of timidity or fear.
If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?
I would love readers to reignite their imaginations. There is incredible power to create and develop when the imagination is released in us. I would love people to remember that there is always hope.

What's the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Highlands New Year?
I was inspired to write the first book, Highlands Christmas, because we had visited relatives in Scotland who grew up in the Inverness area and it seemed like the ideal escapist setting for a Christmas book. This second book sprang up from the idea “what happens after happily ever after?” Of course, in writing a “wishes come true” escapist Christmas book I had left out a lot of loose ends - the kinds of things that we face in the real world. But I don’t like the real world, in fact that’s why I write! Who wants to read all the mundane details of legalities regarding immigration, divorce proceedings, or gaining legal residency? I sure don’t! I want to inherit a gorgeous home in Scotland and fix it up and start a new life!
But in writing a second book about Melissa’s friend who thinks she’s gone off the deep end for upending her life without any consideration to these things I could have a new character get ensnared by the allure of the Scottish highlands, cozy inns, and men in kilts and Melissa’s story could become a subplot. We’ve always attended the Hogmanay celebration in our local Scottish restaurant and I thought the traditions were perfect for a second book. Add in a ruggedly handsome musician named Angus, get them snowed in, and it sounded like another place I’d like to visit.
If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of Highlands New Year, what would they be?
For Angus, it would be anything that sounds good acoustic. I think he’d like a lot of Proclaimers songs – “Jean,” for example, is one he plays at the inn. He’d also like their song “Over and Done With.” But really he’s an old school grunge kind of guy, so he likes “Plush,” “Hunger Strike” and “Learning to Fly.”
Caitlin’s theme song could be “Here Comes Your Man” by the Pixies. But ultimately, since it’s a new year’s book, their song will be “Auld Lang Syne.”
What's your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?
I’ve been reading a lot of books set in Scotland and Ireland lately – magical romance books, sometimes with pirates! It’s a lot of fun. I like escapism.
What books are on your TBR pile right now?
I have a lot of books to read! Right now, there’s a new book by Tricia Levenseller I want to read and a lot of Tricia O’Malley books I haven’t gotten to yet. But there are so many others!
What scene in your book was your favorite to write?
I loved writing the snowy walk where Angus and Caitlin first kiss.
Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)
I like to have a candle that sets the mood/tone for what I’m writing. For these Highlands Christmas Romance books I’ve been using Thymes Frasier Fir candles. I also try to eat or drink things that the characters would eat or drink. For these books it’s been oat cakes, shortbread and haggis. When I was writing Into Dust and Into the Storm I ate a lot of brisket and tacos. And my cat always helps out by walking around the keyboard, peering into my coffee cup or snoozing in my in-out box on my desk.
Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?
There’s a Scots phrase, “whits fur ye'll no go by ye.” It means if it’s meant to be, it’ll happen.
If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?
Travel! During the early Covid lockdowns I thought an awful lot about those “YOLO” people - they were right! You either have time or money. If you find yourself with the time, just go – enjoy, explore the world! If you have money, find a way to make the time.
