Monday-Monday How Shemar Moore fits into my WIP
I was tagged to share information on my current Work in Progress by these to lovely authors. Stop by their place and say hello! http://Allyshields.com and http://susantaylor-wip.blogspot.com
Q. What is your working title of your book?
A. His To Lose
Q. Where did the idea come from for the book?
A. Ty Castillo was a secondary player in Hell or High Water, book one in the Lost and Found, Inc. series. I wanted to take him and me out of our element, so I plunked him down in the jungle in Colombia. Took a lot of research to pull this book off.
Q. What genre does your book fall under?
A. Romantic Suspense
Q. Which actors would you choose to play your characters in a movie rendition?
A. Shemar Moore and Eva Mendes
Q. What is the one-sentence synopsis of your book?
A. An assignment in the Colombian jungle goes rogue when an ex-Army Ranger is tasked to rescue a woman who doesn’t want to be rescued.
Q. Will your book be self-published or represented by an agency?
A. Neither. It’s on submission to an epublisher
Q. How long did it take you to write the first draft of your manuscript?
A. I don’t track that but I’d guess six months. I edit as I go, so when the book is finished there’s not a lot of rewrites to do.
Q. What other books would you compare this story to within your genre?
A. Can do it. I think all writers are uniquely different in the style.
Q. Who or what inspired you to write this book?
A. The desire to get out of my comfort zone and stretch. Researching and learning about Colombia, the jungle, the people and their fight against the drug cartels took a lot of effort but I think it was worth it.
Q. What else about your book might pique the reader’s interest?
A. It’s the clash of two cultures, the coming together of two people who are willing to fight for what they believe in, but ultimately sacrifice everything for love.
Okay, here’s the picture my critique partner sent…she said she’d found a picture of Ty in the shower scene in the book.
Tell us about your WIP!!
