Smashwords Interview

What motivated you to become an indie author?
I am proudly indie! I love being in control of business and career. I love that I can write what I want, when I want. And I love our indie community. We're supportive, loyal and very powerful. Indies rock!
What's the story behind your latest book?
I'm really excited about The Anti-Cinderella books. They've come about in a totally different way for me; I actually had the idea for the title and the cover first, and then the story fell into place. I love that Kyra is not a typical royal romance heroine. She's strong, independent and not at all interested in being glamorous. It was so much fun to write this story, particularly with all of the royal love going on now.
