1. So werewolves huh? What made you come up with the idea for this book?
I
originally wrote this book when I was in high school, which was when
the Anne Rice books were very popular. At that time there were very few
werewolf books and since they were one of my favorite preternatural
creatures I decided to focus my writings on them so that young adult
readers could have a werewolf series to read. I love the way wolves
interact and loved the idea of werewolf packs and how they would
interact with each other in the human world. I had no idea that
werewolves would explode into such a huge trend.
2. I looove the
relationship the pack has. The whole puppy play and sleeping together is
super cute. Are you as close as the pack is with your family?
Yes, my husband, son, daughter and I are very close and spend a lot of time playing and cuddling together.
3. How long did it take you to write the book(s)?
It
took me about a year total to write each book when you combine writing
and then editing. Originally, in high school, I had written all of the
books together as one giant book, but when I decided to self-publish
them I decided to split them up into different books and I changed
several things about the books so it took me a while to reconstruct
them. I am still working on the 4th and final book, Taming Darkness now.
4.
There were a lot of different species in this book and they were just
introduced as you went along. Did you mean for this to happen or was it
planned?
Yup, I meant for it to happen. I wanted to show that all
species were in the world and give glimpses into how I viewed the
different preternaturals, but I did not want to dump all of them on the
readers at once.
