It’s about a sixteen year-old girl who dies, and wakes up in a strange new world with a new career as a guardian angel.
-Your genre in Marked is Paranormal Fantasy right?. You did that on purpose, or you just start writing?
I just started writing. The idea of doing a story about guardians angels just popped into my head. I wasn’t thinking of particular genre.
-What inspired you to write, you took any ideas from other books, movies etc?
My love of books inspired me. And then it just took over.
-Did you do any research before start or during of the writing of the books?
Not really. Most of what I write is fantasy, so I make it up as I go.

Adding romance in my scenes, and not making it corny
-How long has it taken you to write a book ?
Marked took about 6 months to write, and about 6 months to polish with my editor.
-What’s the best part of writing for you?
When the words just start to flow, as though magicked. When my fingers go nuts over the keyboard and I just write.

Right now I’m working hard on finishing my second book, Elemental – that I hope will be finished in July.
-Did you have support at the beginning and/or during your writing?
Yes. My editor is a huge support. From the beginning of the first draft, till the polished finished book.

I’ve always wanted to be a writer, but I never felt I could do it. And then I did.
-How important you find the communication between you and your readers? Do you reply to their messages or read their reviews?
I read all of the reviews. The good and the bad. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I think it’s important to know “why” they liked it or hated it. I try to keep an online presence with them.

I’m also working on a new series, and working on a screenplay for Marked, with an old colleague of mine.
