Is this your first time on Smashwords?
Yes! I published my first book on Amazon Kindle in 2014, and then my second book in 2015. I've gotten great reviews there and have sold over 10,000 copies, so I was quite encouraged by that to expand into new areas of publication. Smashwords has been on my list for the longest time, because from what I see, the readers here are voracious and discerning, and they know a good thing when they see it. Now that I'm ready to step up my author game, I'm here and I can't wait to start hearing from readers who have read my book.
What is the greatest joy of writing for you?
I really enjoy being able to create a new world and fill them with characters from my imagination. As a kid, I would dive into books and spend hours in those worlds, and I'd feel a bit dazed when I surfaced. It was (and still is) the greatest joy to find an author who can do that. And to be able to do that myself is a big thrill.
