While I have a lot of projects that I can't wait to get a start on, I'm working on continuing my One Hell of a Romance series. The prequel, Through Life and Death, is currently available in ebook form through various retailers and Through Love and Hate, a companion to the series, will be out on November 13, 2015.
My next release will be Through Good and Evil, the first book in the main trilogy! I don't currently have a release date, but it's 2/3 written, and I've gotten some amazing feedback already regarding it!

I don't really know where most of my crazy ideas come from. Sometimes I see things on tv or in movies and I think about other ways I would have liked to see it done, or what I think characters I'd already created in my head would react.
One of the biggest influences, I would have to say, is the show Supernatural. While my world and theirs is vastly different, some of the main elements have been influential. Mark Sheppard, for example, plays Crowley - a demon who is the king of hell. I have Tobias, who is a vampire and the king of hell. There are some commonalities between the two characters, while I've still been able to make Tobias into my own creation.
But yeah, other than that, I'm not really sure. The characters tell me their stories and I just write them!

My most recent book, Through Love and Hate (due out November 13, 2015), was actually written in direct response to something that happened/is happening to someone I know and love. TLaH is about a young college student, Megan, who is so desperate to save her best friend who has just been diagnosed with cancer, that she is willing to sell her soul in order to make sure Anya lives.
I was dealing with how I thought the world would lose some of it's brightness and luster without her, and how anyone who knows her, would do anything for her. So, the best outlet I could think of to deal with everything, was by writing. Whereas most people would probably keep a journal with their thoughts and feelings, instead I started writing in the form of fiction, and where my main character COULD do something about what was happening - or at least, so she thinks!
