Interview with Andrea Martin
Published 2018-02-28.
Do you remember the first story you ever wrote?
Yes, but not in great detail. It was back in school and I managed to throw dinosaurs in there, because dinosaurs are awesome and the story we were supposed to write wasn't very interesting.
How do you discover the ebooks you read?
Mostly through authors I already enjoy, or recommendations from friends and readers.
What is your writing process?
Sit down. Write. Read it over once finished. Publish. Start the next story.
When did you first start writing?
I've always written stories. Mostly for fun and personal growth. It's only recently that I've actually started publishing my work. I spent a lot of time writing articles and reviews for various (now-defunct) websites, but I always seem to come back to fiction.
What's the story behind your latest book?
A married woman discovers her new boss is the man she almost had an affair with on the night before her wedding... and he hasn't forgotten her!
What motivated you to become an indie author?
I wanted to know if I could do it, and do it well, and keep doing it. I knew I could write to a decent standard, and the only way to improve is to keep writing. Now that I'm on the treadmill and I have an audience, there's no way to stop. Gotta write faster.
What is the greatest joy of writing for you?
Two things:
Firstly, finishing a story and leaning back in my chair as I read it through in full for the first time.
Secondly, when someone leans a kind review of my work. Knowing that somebody out there has liked the innermost workings of my mind and heart is beyond wonderful.
What do your fans mean to you?
The world. I wouldn't be able to keep doing this if it weren't for my readers. What would be the point if nobody noticed or cared?
I love you all!
What are you working on next?
I have many other stories in various stages of completion.
-A wife who wants to experience anal sex is constantly rebuffed by her husband, forcing her to explore other options.
-The third (and final?) part of the CEO's Son storyline - Katie confronts Jonathan once and for all.
-A story about a young fiance worried that her lack of sexual experience will become a major regret later in life.
-The first part of a trilogy following a husband and wife whose marriage is altered forever after a passionate night of infidelity.
-The first part in another trilogy centering around a young woman seemingly plucked from obscurity by her billionaire boss to become a mole in his rival's company.
-Dozens and dozens of hastily-scribbled notes for other sexy ideas that I may or may not ever get around to writing.
What inspires you to get out of bed each day?
The knowledge that I've got shit to do and laying there ain't gonna get it done.
When you're not writing, how do you spend your time?
At the gym, or listening to audiobooks, or trying to think up more sexy scenarios to write about!
