Hey SB! Killer question. So I know reader reviews are always a reflection of the person's own views and opinions filtered through your art, but the way people interpreted Ty and Kate and their dynamic was so diverse I felt like I'd written a million different Act Your Ages, one for everybody who read it.
There were people who thought Kate was strong, that she was weak, that she was exaggerating her ADHD symptoms, that it was impossible for her to be so naive, that she was talking about being naive but was actually secretly in control. And Ty! There were people who thought he was pure evil and people who thought he was just an accurate portrayal of a forty-five-year-old Gen Xer. People who thought he was taking advantage of Kate and people who appreciated seeing a male lead struggle with 'real' insecurities and display (and overcome) the wishy-washyness that IRL men so often engage in.
And then there's the DDLG roleplay... Some people thought it was hot. Some people were repulsed by it. Some people were repulsed in a way that said they were clearly turned on and resentful that they had to know that about themselves. Some people thought it didn't go far enough, that they wanted more legit roleplay i.e. he's actually her stepfather. Basically any and all reactions people could have about Act Your Age, they had. It was amazing and bizarre and it also helped me take my hands further off the wheel as a creative. As in 'I write what I like because I like it, since people can and will interpret it any old way they want.' Which I think is a good thing.

Hey! I've actually just started work on the novella! Hope you're as pumped as I am <3

I actually don't write with music all that often, as I find it distracting, but if I'm in the mood I just chuck on my Discover Weekly playlist on Spotify, there's usually something good in there!

Hey there! Super glad you liked AYA, the reader response to it has been the most interesting of my career. So, I anticipated Not Your Shoe size being a novella about how Ty and Middleton are making their way in the world. It's on the back-burner for now, but I've no doubt it'll get written eventually. Hope that sates your curiosity!

Thank you so much! Okay, so I'm a pretty eclectic reader, especially when it comes to romance and I tend to love individual novels more than authors if that makes sense? That said, Cara McKenna, Charlotte Stien and Skye Warren are regular buys for me. I've also adored a lot of Amy Andrews, Joey W Hill and Alyssa Cole novels and Summer Skin by Kristy Eagar remains my favourite YA romance. Hope this helps <3

Hey Cathy! So 2017 saw me crazy busy with other books and the start of 2018 has been dedicated to writing a novel with Tessa Bailey (!) and re-releasing my first two books (with epilogue novellas) I'm working on the first book of a new trilogy right now (about lady tattooists!) but I'm hoping to get cracking on Mock after that probably by Australian Winter. Either way, Daniel and her boys will be back baby, sit tight.
