July 30 Character Interview at Mission to Read
http://www.missiontoread.com


Onto the interview:

What is it about the paranormal, in particular witches, ghosts, and haunted houses featured in your book, that fascinates you so much?

I've always had a morbid fascination with haunted houses and ghosts. I love all things supernatural, and I knew the market was flooded with vampires, fairies, and werewolves, so I decided to make my heroine a sassy witch. Because witches need love too!

The story ARC took a different twist once I decided to add magick to my plot. And it was super fun. The story came alive and I found my "voice." In the Spellbound Series, the narrative is loosely based on the actual Wiccan Religion; however I have taken certain liberties with the portrayal of real witchcraft purely for entertainment purposes.

And as a result of adding a magickal theme, I wanted my main characters to live in a spooky town, which gave birth to the idea of the setting: Whispering Pines, California near Muir Woods. A foggy, cursed town full of secrets was the perfect place to set my story. I also have a blog devoted to its haunted history. http://ravenhurstmansion.blogspot.com/

Please tell us about your latest release Beautifully Broken:

Quirky, Shiloh Ravenwolf is a sixteen-year-old heritage witch. She lives in the gloomy town of Whispering Pines, where teenagers have mystically disappeared for over ten years. When construction on Ravenhurst Manor unleashes a sinister evil, the body count rises. And Shiloh's would-be boyfriend is next on the supernatural hit list. So, she decides it's her duty and Destiny (Yes, with a capital "D") to find out what is causing the unexplained phenomena.

Is there a character that you enjoyed writing more than any of the others?

The heroine, Shiloh Ravenwolf is my (younger) alter ego. Like Shiloh, my own father is Native American and my mother is French. So, Shiloh inherited my DNA. She is quirky and snarky and brave. All the things I wish I had been at sixteen. J

What is your favorite scene from the book? Could you share a little bit of it, without spoilers of course?

First meeting between the two main characters. (see excerpt below) I think we all can relate to that feeling of instant attraction. That weak-in-the-knees sensation.

Do you ever suffer from writer's block? How do you deal with it?

Oh yeah. Whenever I get writers block or can't think of a clever way to explain

Giveaway Time!
Thirteenth Daughter. Heritage Witch. Demon Slayer.
They say every town has its secrets, but that doesn't even begin to describe Whispering Pines. The townsfolk are a superstitious lot and the mystical disappearance of a local teen has everyone murmuring about a centuries old witch's curse.
Sixteen-year-old Shiloh Ravenwolf is a heritage witch from the Broussard family, a family both destined and cursed. When she takes a summer job at Ravenhurst Manor, she discovers a ghost with an agenda. That's where she meets the new town hottie, Trent Donovan, and immediately becomes spellbound by his charms. Yet she is determined to discover the connection between them.
Finally, Shiloh's met someone who is supercute and totally into her, but Trent may be the next victim on the supernatural hit list. And Shiloh is the only person with the power to save him. Complicated much?
It sucks to have a destiny, especially since Shiloh would rather spend her summer being a normal girl who worries about clothes and boys, not the supernatural. But she's never been normal, and the stranger things become the more her own magical senses awaken.
With cryptic messages from a pesky wraith, she will begin to understand the mysterious significance of the strange mark branded on her wrist and decide how much she's willing to sacrifice to protect the other teenagers in town.
Unfortunately, for Shiloh, not all ghosts want help crossing over. Some want vengeance.
