Alyssa Edge

Biography

After chasing my dreams to become a writer, I finally threw caution to the wind and published Witches Spell. I dream that one day this will become my full time career. I would like to bring passion, romance, mystery and erotic naughtiness with, detailed descriptions to invoke vivid images of the characters in your mind while reading.

I love to write all kinds of stories. One of the best part about writing is the fact that real life is always uncertain, always tossing things at us that we have no control over, but when your write you can make sure there's always a happy ending. I love that about being an author. My favorite part is when I sit down at my computer block out everything around me, so I can create worlds in front of me.

I am a full time mother, wife, writer and corporate event planner. My family takes over a huge part of my time and focus. With my husband and two teenagers at home it is hard at times to have a harmonious working, writing and family relationship.

Smashwords Interview

What motivated you to become an indie author?

I have written many short stories while most of them sit never to be read by the world a select few were given to friends to read. With their motivation of saying how much they loved the stories it promoted me to write and publish something. When I started, I had no idea what publishing a book entailed. So I began reading about it when I was almost finished writing my manuscript. Formatting a manuscript for publication took a lot out of me but I learned a lot and enjoyed the journey. Rewrite, edit, rewrite, edit, rewrite, edit for few more times until I thought it was done. It was constantly changing but the experience was exhilarating seeing my name on the cover of a finished book and I made it to happen. It was all my effort. I created a beautiful book and I did it from start to finish.

What is the greatest joy of writing for you?

I work on something for weeks, months. I rewrite it, break it into pieces, blow up each one, shrink them. Over and over and around back through and as I'm cutting and pasting wondering if I will ever get the scene right or portray my characters as they were true living people and make my readers believe in them.
I discover that sharing a story is the best way to feel joyful of this gift I have, and to share it with others, the only way I can - I WRITE.
