So many things inspire my work. The main ones would be:
* My experiences - just living my life. I have been asked if OCEAN HEART is about me as the MC has redhead, lives in my hometown and is crushing on her BFF. But, I’m not a mermaid with weather manipulation powers.
* Art - a picture, a song, a film, a book. The underwater kiss scene was inspires by a photo. Mariah’s powers was inspired by a song. The initial idea was started as a modern The Little Mermaid. And, the shifters was inspired by Rachel Vincent’s series on werecats.
* Conspiracy theories/News - I’d love to write a dystopian one day. This stories are often shocking and either true or theorists have done a good job to make them believable. I think that’s at the heart of fiction.
