Do your characters come before or after your plot?

My characters generally come after I have a rough plot in my head. I usually think of a story outline long before the characters walk into my mind. 

How do you choose a villain and how do you make them human?

I think we all have a little good and a little bad in us. When creating a villain, I tap into the darker parts of my psyche. 

Do your reading choices reflect your writing choices?

I'm ashamed to say that I don't read enough. Do audiobooks count? Actually, I am heavily influenced by poetry, especially when I'm writing descriptions about nature. Too, I find that after I've listened to a novel, example: Stephen King, it puts me in the suspense zone which also helps me with motivation and flow.

 Which type of characters are your favorite to write?

This is a great question. I love to write about characters that are developing from timid, scared and vulnerable to ass-kicking powerhouses that aren't about to lie down and take crap from anyone anymore.

What are you working on now?

Right now I'm writing a book called The Immoral. It's about a girl who's a recluse and lives on her boat. The only close friend she has gets mixed up with a really bad guy that has ties in the sex industry. The two friends join together to not only sabotage the creep but to free vulnerable girls as well.

What sort of research do you do for your work?

Because I write suspense, murder mystery types of novels, I have to do A LOT of research for each story. Everything from contacting forensic specialists, police detectives and an array of other institutions and experts.

 


STORM

After taking the fall for her former lover, Paisley Stewart comes out of a stint in prison only to stay in another: her childhood home on Vancouver Island, where memories of her homophobic childhood linger. To her relief, her parents plan to vacation in Florida for part of the summer, leaving her to take care of the rental cabins. However, the relief is short-lived. She has a co-landlord: the know-it-all Ivy Logan, a family friend and childhood enemy. Little do they realize that their friction is setting off sparks, and a summer romance blooms.

However, their happiness doesn’t last. Ghosts from Paisley’s past emerge, and what was once an idyllic dream becomes a living nightmare. The girls find themselves in a desperate fight for their lives, and Paisley must decide—how far will she go to save the woman she loves?



HUSH

Jade Banks thinks she has finally found happiness. A home on a beautiful little island, and a good woman, Annie, by her side. But that all changes when her father dies and leaves her brother, Denny, in charge of the family fortune—a brother Jade knows is seeking to destroy her. After a night away, Jade returns home to find Annie hurt. A short time later, a body is found in the bay. Over a hellish few weeks, Jade is caught up in a police investigation while her insecurities and paranoia push Annie away. With the intention of restoring peace to their lives, Jade gathers clues that point to the murderer. However, she is not prepared for the shocking truth revealed by a shotgun blast that echoes over the bay.

  1. Most notably, it has urea, uric acid, and creatine. It also matches the specific gravity, pH values, color, and odor that labs expect to find in a human urine product. The Quick Luck advanced formula developed by Clear Choice remains unmatched by any other synthetic urine brands.The Quick Luck package contains both a heat activator and heating pads to warm the solution to the right temperature. It only takes a third of the packet of heat activator powder to get the Quick Luck sample in the correct range. A handy temperature strip lets you know when your solution is ready.You also get a practice kit in the box to prepare for your big day without wasting your valuable Quick Luck synthetic urine. To further sweeten the deal, Clear Choice offers overnight shipping for the Quick Luck synthetic urine. That way, it will likely arrive in time for a test given on short notice.Unless you need a more discreet storage option for the long-term or have limited financial resources, we would recommend Quick Luck by Clear Choice. Depending on the drugs used, a hair sample can even help determine when the drug was taken and whether it’s been discontinued. Hair drug tests are extremely accurate, but they do require a very specific set of standards during the collection and testing processes. Synthetic urine kits are available in both powdered and liquid forms. If it is in a powdered form, you need to prepare the urine sample solution by adding the right amount of water. The product is cost-effective but is slow in showing results. It is suitable for Blood and Urine tests but not for Saliva or Hair Follicle tests.
