The best thing about being a writing is the freedom to create any world you want. I love being able to take a story thread in a new direction. But with that freedom, comes a lot of writer’s angst. When you can write anything you want to, how do you decide? I think many writers like to stick to a specific genre because each of these categories come with certain rules to follow. As a writer, that might sound confining, however for me it really helps to organize the story that I want to tell…and still give the readers what they are looking for.
And now, what you've been waiting for, a look at her latest release Never Play Fair. Would you look at that cover! And do not forget to enter the giveaway below.
