The Cover of My Next Novel and What I Like to Read vs. What I Like to Write
Greetings!
So we think this is going to be the cover of my next novel, which is tentatively titled HER RUSSIAN BILLIONAIRE, and will definitely be hitting Amazon in March. Don't drop dead of shock, but the hero is a really intense alpha male.
I'm a huge fan of writing intense alpha males and favor complicated plots with heightened situations populated by people with really strong personalities.
But you know what, I just love reading a good novel about regular folks. If your novel has two...

I always wanted to go, but I was scared off when I had a chance by someone who had studied there, and said that Russia was maybe a bit dangerous for a black people. Funnily enough, this books takes place almost entirely in Texas.

No, initially it was not scary at all. The University that I studied at was set up to educate mostly people from developing countries. Since I'm also black I felt safe and made friends from all over the world.
My friend studied and did an arts internship in St. Petersburg. She said she felt safe at the university, not as much during the internship part. I think it was something like she had verbal encounter while walking in broad daylight and it left her feeling shaken or something like that. I hate that I'm being so vague, but this was a long time ago. I wish I had kept in contact with her, so that I could get the full story. In college, you're just kind of like, "oh well, i'll go to this other country instead."
