Interview with Jaye Diane

Published 2019-01-02.
When you're not writing, how do you spend your time?
When I'm not writing I am usually taking care of home and family. When I have free time, I love to read and listen to music. I also enjoy movies.
How do you discover the ebooks you read?
I usually just search for authors I like but at other times I'll randomly search the genre I'm interested in reading at the moment and pick something that has decent reviews.
Do you remember the first story you ever wrote?
I don't specifically remember the first story I wrote but I've been writing stories and poems since childhood.
What is your writing process?
I brainstorm and create an outline. I also write lots of notes. I don't plan out every single detail. Some characters have a mind of their own :)
What do you read for pleasure?
I absolutely love to read romances but I also love to read mysteries and thrillers.
What is your e-reading device of choice?
I have a Nook tablet that I usually use but I also have Kindle.
When did you first start writing?
I've been writing since childhood. I remember getting praised by my second grade teacher for a story I had written.
What do your fans mean to you?
My fans are very important to me. The fans are a great means of support and motivation.
What advice do you have for up-and-coming writers?
Start by writing about what you know and love and go from there. Don't ever give up.
