I find inspiration in the strangest places, from dreams to men walking down the street, songs, strangers, comments made by friends. I fall in love with my characters and their love story, it seems natural to want to share. ) Writing without publishing, for me, would be like creating a painting you love and then storing it in the closet. Why do I publish? That’s an entirely different question. Why do you write in general? What motivates or inspires you to write or is inspiration for your stories? I also have another short, HOOKING UP, releasing on March 18 th from TWRP.Ĭan you name any authors that you absolutely MUST read the moment you see a new book of theirs out?Ĭari Quinn, Krelsey Cole, Ilona Andrews, JR Ward, Helen Hardt and so many others! What are some other books you’ve written?įIRST DATE and AFTER HOURS, both published by The Wilder Rose Press, are my first publications. An editor friend of mine encouraged me to write the story.

At least the song inspired the ‘what if’. What was your inspiration for Creative License, or how did it come about?Ĭreative License was originally inspired by Katy Perry’s song, Waking Up in Vegas. In addition, you should write what you love and if you love a genre, it’s hard to stay away from it anyway. I realize that might sound like a contradiction but creativity inspires creativity. I think reading the genre in which you write is a big part of keeping your writing fresh. I write urban fantasy under my ‘real’ name. Under Lynne Roberts, I write erotic and spicy romance. What types of books do you write genre and such? And do you read the same genre you write? Lynne and I have built a wonderful friendship and so, upon hearing of her upcoming release dates, I pounced with my questions as any dear friend would. Today we’re talking to Lynne Roberts, erotic romance author whom I’ve had the pleasure of editing on many occasions.
