The IndieView

You need a network. Don’t do this alone. Find other authors, observe them, listen to them when they impart their wisdom and experience, take advantage of the resources, and remember that no matter what happens, the entire process is a joy ride! You’re on a journey, and having a learning experience. Enjoy it!

For the love of Tom Cruise, please find a good editor. Sure, you can walk out your front door naked, but you’d be showing the world those bits best left to mystery. To further this analogy: Be patient. Just because you don’t have the time or money for clothes, does not mean it’s okay to leave your house in your birthday suit. The police (also known as readers) will call you on it, then you’ll have a record, a reputation that could keep you from your dream job. Mind your Ps and Qs, literally, and remember, you cannot edit your own work. I don’t care who you are.

I have always sat on my own shoulder watching things go pear-shaped and thinking, “this will be funny one day,” so each time something went horribly wrong I’d be busier looking for the angle than actually trying to sort it out.

It all started with a little daydream while I was at work. In it, a tall, dark and mysterious guy with unique coloured eyes came up to the counter wearing a leather jacket and looking super dangerous.

I’m spontaneous. I get an idea and then just go with it. From there, the plot and character development seem to take on a life of their own. It’s really fun to see it all unfold. When the inspiration comes, there’s no stopping it.

I hope to appeal to a wide array of readers: there’s action, but also romance and interaction. In fact, when I first got the book in the hands of a few female readers, I was relieved to hear that they found it interesting too.
