What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Kingdom of Time?
There are actually two stories behind the story. The tales of two thrones, if you will, that altered my brain chemistry and reignited my love for reading and writing—Game of Thrones and Throne of Glass. It was after my fourth reread of the latter that I decided I wanted to give it a go myself.
If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of Kingdom of Time, what would they be?
This is a fun one! The leading ladies in Kingdom of Time are so vastly different and would likely never agree on one radio station. I imagine their theme songs as: Nora – Remember The Name by Fort Minor, Savallin – Jade Green by Kacey Musgraves, Everly – Vigilante Shit by Taylor Swift, and Ava – Miss Nothing by The Pretty Reckless.
What’s your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?
It definitely depends on what I’m trying to achieve. If I’m looking to spare myself from reality for a good, long while, I prefer the all-encompassing embrace of high fantasy. If I’m in need of a shorter, quicker hit, say on a plane or car ride, I greatly enjoy the high of psychological thrillers. While writing fantasy is my first love, it would be no book of mine without the twisty threads of mystery and suspense woven throughout.
What books are on your TBR pile right now?
The three books staring at me from my nightstand are The Housemaid by Freida McFadden, Red Rising by Pierce Brown, and Smoke and Scar by Gretchen Powell.
What scene in your book was your favorite to write?
Oh, the closing scene without a doubt! The whole thing—the characters, the setting, the expressions, the dialogue—had all been swimming through my thoughts for weeks by the time I finally got it onto (virtual) paper.
Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)
I don’t know how quirky this is, but there does exist an iron-clad window for when I can write and when I cannot. From about 4 am until noon, my mind hums and thrums and crafts worlds like it was meant for nothing else. The second the clock strikes 12:01, it’s all I can do to remember how to spell world-building.
Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?
Just do it. (Nike)
