AUTHOR BIO: Tricia was born in Michigan and knew at an early age that she had a creative soul and a connection to the paranormal.

After moving to Maryland her first artistic expressions were in the forms of crafts, sketches and paintings. In later years she even dabbled in comic book art, before getting her Associates Art Degree in Studio Art.

During the 1980’s Tricia branched out into jewelry design creating a small handmade jewelry business, which is still operating today.

While Tricia had begun writing in her early teens it was not until 2007 when she met a wonderful group of likeminded women (through of all things an online fan club discussion for one hot young vampire) who encouraged her to take that first step and introduce her intriguing stories to the world. After that the dam of creativity broke and a multitude of plot bunnies burst forth.

By day, Tricia is a Customer Service manager for an insurance brokerage handling clients numerous daily needs; by night, she wields her mighty keyboard to craft otherworldly universes filled with fantastical – and often lusty – creatures, who beckon us to join them in their irresistible adventures that determine the fate of men and angels.”

Tricia has been inspired by everything from music, art, cultural and religious mythology, ancient aliens’ theory, and history.

Over the years a collection of writers have helped to shape her thinking and views of the world, including Ursula Le Guin, Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury, Tanya Huff, JD Ward, Gena Showalter, Larrisa Ione, Alexandria Ivy, Kresley Cole, Jeaniene Frost, Kevin Hearne, Colleen Doran, and Mercedes Lackey.

Author Interview

When did you first realize you wanted to be a writer? I think I always wanted to write – as a child I had many “invisible friends” I made up stories with. In the 80’s I dabbled in writing comics/graphic novels (the stories were better than the art. In 2007 I was encourage by fiends to make a leap of faith and begin writing “for real”

 

How long does it take you to write a book? First draft? About 8 months (life and a full time job get in the way) with editing and such I’d say about a year

 

What is your work schedule like when you're writing? Whenever I can catch at least 20 minutes!

 

What would you say is your interesting writing quirk? I’m a complete “pantser” I don’t do outlines or anything – I always know where I’m going to start and end – I just write and the characters or the story leads me


How do your books get published? I have a wonderful publisher CHBB (Crushing Hearts and Black Butterfly Publishing)to whom I submitted on a chance suggestion by a good friend

 

Where do you get your information or ideas for your books? Music, mythology, art, ancient alien theory, religion - everywhere


When did you write your first book and how old were you? Seven years ago – its been shelved for me to come back to – which I plan on; no comment on the age J


What do you like to do when you're not writing? Work – and making jewelry – sneaking in a bit of time for sleep


What does your family think of your writing? I’m not sure they thought I would follow through with pursuing publishing when I first started making a real effort but they have been fully supportive


What was one of the most surprising things you learned in creating your books? How nasty “reviewers” can be


How many books have you written? Which is your favorite? I love both that are published but the “under the bed” book I started with as my “learning how to write” book is my favorite


Do you have any suggestions to help me become a better writer? If so, what are they? Take classes, workshops, join your local writing chapter for your genre – some are online – go to writing retreats and talk with other writers even if they write in a different genre than you – and never give up! J Just remember the classic Jonathan Livingston Seagull was rejected 43 times before someone took a chance


Do you hear from your readers much? What kinds of things do they say? A few comments now and again – I’m so new I’m still building a “fan base” but most of the comments have been positive.


Do you like to create books for adults? Of course


What do you think makes a good story? I think that’s subjective to the reader  – but  I like good characters I can relate to

 

As a child, what did you want to do when you grew up? An artist

 

Any books in the works? Book number three in the Dark Knights of Heaven

 

What are your plans for the future? Finish book number three! And start reworking the book I set aside as I’d like to tie it in to the current series
