What's the story behind the story? What inspired you to write this book?
I love sentient objects—and a sentient house is irresistible to me. I started wondering: what if a person were turned into a house… and then, hundreds of years later, turned back again? The House isn’t just a setting; she is the main character—powerful, resilient, and unexpectedly humble. She was pure fun to write.
What's your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?
I read everything (at an alarming pace—often a book a day). Urban fantasy is my forever favorite, and it’s also my favorite genre to write.
What books are on your TBR pile right now?
Mostly pre-orders—I keep checking release dates so I don’t miss anything. My TBR stays oddly small because I read books the moment I get them.
What scene in your book was your favorite to write?
Anything involving Harper’s paper magic. Once you start treating paper like a weapon, the possibilities are endless—and I had a lot of fun with that.
Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)
I write late at night, usually on the sofa with my laptop on my knees, and there’s almost always a cat or dog nearby.
Do you have a motto, quote or philosophy you live by?
Be kind. You never know what someone is dealing with.
If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?
That they enjoyed it. That they closed the book with that satisfied feeling of a really good read.
