If you gave some of your characters an opportunity to speak for themselves, what would they say? Sure, I can call in a member from the psychic vampire race. Layla Gray, the eldest known vampire in the world would probably say something like, “You are cute to want an interview, human. I’m surprised your race hasn’t died out by now, but of course, you have The Core to thank for that, don’t you?”
Do you have plans for a new book? Is this book part of a series? This books is part of a series. The first four are completed. My publisher is reviewing the second one as we speak.
What or who inspired you to write? And how long have you been writing? The people in my life inspired me to write the most. My family has always been in my corner.

What book are you currently reading and in what format (electronic/paperback/

Are there any new Authors that have grasped your interest and why? Apart from yourself, because your series sounds like a must read, Thomas Amo, author of the Forsaken Series. Nova Sparks because she has incredible potential and she inspires me. I also look forward to reading K.C. Neal’s upcoming young adult novel, Pyxis: The Discovery.

Is there anything you would change in your last book and why? I probably would have ended it sooner, and made sure readers knew this was part of a series.
