I have, quite recently completed Behind Closed Doors. Thank you for the amazing work! How did you come up with a different idea, off of the beaten track, with regard to Jack and Alice? How many drafts have you written, before finally publishing your work?

B.A. Paris Hello,
Thank you for your message, I'm so sorry for my late reply. I'm so glad you enjoyed Behind Closed Doors. I don't really know where the idea came from ; I thought I would write a book about a controlling husband but I didn't expect Jack to be as evil as he turned out to be.
In answer to your second question, I suppose I must have written maybe three or four drafts before it was finally published.
With best wishes

I also thought the idea of social media marketing was super brilliant~ I devoured Behind Closed Doors and had my friends and followers chomping at the bit. What can you tell us about how to develop characters? I cared about each one from the very start, and desperately wanted Jack to turn out nice.

Cindy Weber asked B.A. Paris:

It's hard to believe you have only written 3 books! You are a great story teller. The twists and turns keep me guessing even after I think I've got it figured out! Keep up the good work. I can't wait to read your next one. Any idea what it's going to be about?

Vicky Bair asked B.A. Paris:

I was continually stunned and awestruck with the characters of your first book Behind Closed Doors. I have yet to read your second book but I am sure it is just as great with character development and plot as the first. What was the spark that set the words on paper for Breakdown?
