The Space Lords series was a series
installment in the sci-fi romance Qurilixen World collection. It came naturally
as the characters from previous series began leaving their planet for the high
skies.
Which comes first for you – a character's
looks, personality or name?:
Usually the personality or name. One
usually informs the other. A name can tell you were the character grew up, what
kind of family s/he might have had. Those influences will help develop who that
person became.
Any tips for aspiring authors?:
The only advice I really have that is worth
anything is to do your homework. Research everything—your book, marketing,
promo, your genre. You just have to spend the time and read up. There is no
magic formula or secret handshake. I wish there was. You just have to put in
the hours and do the work. Knowledge really is power.
Questions for fun:
If
you had the power of time travel, is there anything you would go back and
change? Why/why not?:
I would like to go back and talk to the
Michelle at the beginning of my writing career. Though, if I do that, I might
not be where I am now, so that’s a hard one. Maybe I’ll just go back further to
tell her good luck and to rethink the 1997 haircut.
What
super-power would you choose?:
To be able to clean with a point of my
finger. Wouldn’t that just be awesome? I’d never do a load of laundry again.
If
you could have three wishes, what would they be?:
Health and Happiness for my family
and friends
The opportunity to travel the
world and visit every country
Your
weapon/instrument/gadget of choice?:
Food simulator from my Qurilixen World.
I’d never cook again. Well, to be honest, I have a husband who cooks so I’ll
probably never really cook again anyway.
Coffee,
tea or wine?:
Skinny Soy French Vanilla Latte all day
long.
And to finish:
What
is your favourite book? (aside from one of your own!):
Travels with Charley by John Steinbeck – I
liked the anthropological look at America.
Favourite
genre and why?:
That’s too hard. As an author, I love
being able to move around to different genres and I’m so lucky to have awesome
fans who follow me there. It’s the same for what I read. I’ll read almost
anything. But when it comes to television, I love sci fi, horror, and have
recently been watching documentaries.
Favourite
colour?:
Blue
Upcoming
news and plans for the future?:
I’m always working and writing books, so
that is unlikely to change. I have several sci fi romances and cozy mysteries
planned. I’m also in discussion about a few film projects.
Thank you so much for taking the time to
talk to us!
Space Lords: His Earth Maiden
Former elite Federation soldier, now
turned space pirate, Jackson Burke has done his best to turn his life
around—for the better. He isn't prepared when fate leaves a woman's safety
totally in his hands. Since heroes don't leave a damsel in distress—and despite
being outlaw pirates, the crew considers themselves the good guys—Jackson
assumes responsibility for the beauty. It’s enough that his ship is held
together by rust and sheer will, now he's got to keep this good guy thing
straight and not give into the urges the sassy female brings out in him. Raisa
is everything a man could want and for some reason she seems to like him, rough
edges and all, but he's on the Federation's wanted list and they aren't known
to back down.
A Qurilixen World Novel
“5 Stars! The author doesn't let
up. Just when you think they've overcome the secret enemy...well, don't want to
spoil anything. You'll need to read for yourself. I'm a fan of the author, the
series and especially this book.” – Cheri, Amazon
