Then it took me another five to get an agent.ħ38 DAYS will be out on Jfrom Forge Books. I published with a small press about 5 years after I started writing seriously. How long were you writing before getting a publishing contract? That’s about a girl, Caroline, who, feeling pressure from her overachieving mother, made up her entire high school social life, populating it with characters from 90s TV shows (Willow, Felicity, Joey, etc.) Now, starting college, Caroline has to figure out who she is and how to make real friends for the first time, before her mother decides Caroline can’t handle it and forces her to come home.

I’m doing the prep work for FINDING FELICITY, which will my YA book in 2017 (Simon & Schuster). 🙂Īre you writing your next book? Can you share a little about it? Is your book part of a series or a standalone?ĭo you require silence when writing or do you listen to music? 🙂 Now I do a lot more planning, though I don’t formally plot or outline. I was a pantser (write by the seat of my pants) for years, but being under deadline has changed my process. It is my debut into contemporary romance/new adult, but not YA.Ī combination. That will be out from Simon and Schuster.

The second is a contemporary YA, currently called LIFE, AFTER, but we’re in the middle of a title change. The first is a new adult/contemporary romance called 738 DAYS (Forge Books). The series is about a girl who’s half-human, half-alien, trying to figure out who she is and her purpose in life, all while avoiding the evil corporation that created her and falling in love with a human boy that she can’t really have. My most recent book is THE TRIALS, which is the final book in the Project Paper Doll series. Can you tell us a little about your book? Is it your debut novel?
