Interview with Tricia T. LaRochelle, Author of A Collision with Love

What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write A Collision with Love?

This book came to me in the same manner all of my books have. A scene played out in my head that kept expanding into a full story. I am always grateful for that.

If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of A Collision with Love, what would they be?

The theme delves into the dynamics of balancing work with having a happy life. It speaks to anyone who has struggled to find what truly makes them happy, instead of what makes everyone around them happy.

What’s your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?

I love a gripping romance.

What books are on your TBR pile right now?

I’m reading some new authors right now, including The Butterfly and the Web by Lorna Neligan.

What scene in your book was your favorite to write?

I love to surprise my readers with a good plot twist and this book does not disappoint.

Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)

No quirky habits. I tend to envision my scenes and then write them out until the muse takes over and I can’t stop typing.

Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?

My philosophy is to never let anyone tell you that your work isn’t worthy or that you can’t achieve your dreams. I’ve always told my kids to surround themselves with good people. I’ve had to learn that lesson the hard way. Good people can lift you up. Toxic people can tear you down.

If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?

I want my readers to feel when they read my books. The stories that evoke emotion are the ones that always stick with me.
