Fate Fixed blog tour!


Welcome to the Fate Fixed blog tour! I am excited to be part of this tour - I've actually had my eye on this book for awhile now :) Keep reading for more on this book, and an interview with the author!

***********************************

When did you begin writing?

Other than the occasional poem or journal entry, I began writing in May of this year. I had the idea for the Erris Coven Series and just knew I wanted to write Fate Fixed.


What is your biggest challenge of being an author?

I’m new to writing so I still have many challenges. I think the biggest is making time to write. I wish I could write every day, but I have a busy life that doesn’t want to slow down.


What do you love most about being an author?

I love hearing from readers who loved my novel! Whether they write me on Facebook or on Goodreads, I love when they are passionate about my story. I especially love it when they tell me they loved my characters. It makes me so happy.


What do you do in your spare time?

In my spare time I take care of my family and attend the University of Connecticut where I am

in my senior year.


What are some of your favorite movies/tv shows?

My favorite shows are usually supernatural in nature. The Vampire Diaries, True Blood, Being Human, Haven and The Nine Lives of Chloe King are probably my favorites. For movies, I love Life as a House, The Twilight Saga, Requiem for a Dream, and Charlie St. Cloud, to name a few.


Who are some of your favorite authors?

I love Jane Austen, Christopher Pike, Megg Jensen, Frank McCourt, and Melissa Marr.


How many books have you written?

The only book I have published is Fate Fixed, although I have a few more in the works.


What would your ideal career be, if you couldn't be an author?

I would be a social worker in an adoption agency. My youngest is adopted and I would love to help make families happy and complete each day!


Do you have any advice for other writers?

Only to give yourself permission to write the story only you can tell. Flick the critic off your

shoulder when it tries to tell you that you do not have a story to tell.


What are you currently working on?

I am currently putting the finishing touches on Blood Twist: Book 2 in The Erris Coven Series.


About the author:

When Lexie Anderson’s mother suddenly announces she is marrying a Romanian immigrant, Lexie willingly leaves behind her busy life in Connecticut for her penance in “The Moose Capital of the World.” Small town living is strange enough, now Lexie must cope with her overbearing stepfamily monitoring her every move. They disappear into the woods at night and keep a strange secret locked in their shed. Her once calm mother is now having violent outbursts and Lexie’s little sister is hearing sinister sounds coming from the forest behind their new home. Lexie’s biggest surprise comes when she discovers the boy she has been dreaming about since her accident is living in Maine. Despite Torin’s questionable reputation, Lexie cannot resist the physical and emotional attraction pulsating between them. Animals and people in town are turning up dead and Lexie learns the strange new world she lives in has real life monsters. Just when she decides she wants to be with Torin forever, she must fight to protect her mother and sister from being harmed by a formidable evil.
