First, if we were meeting at a coffee shop I’d be drinking a Latte 🙂
What would you order? A salted caramel mocha, although I make these at home and I think they’re just as good!!!
Thanks so much for taking the time to answer a few questions. I LOVE your Carolina Cold Fury Hockey books and was wondering how many books you anticipate in this series? Right now, I’m under contract with Random House for a total of four books, but we are talking about possibly two more in 2016.
How much research did you do for this? I didn’t have to do too much research. I know the rules pretty well but I had to check up on a few things to make sure I was right.
Were you a fan of hockey before you started writing this series? Absolutely! I’ve been following the Pittsburgh Penguins for years even though I’m a North Carolinian born and bred. I’ve been to all of the games they play here against the Carolina Hurricanes and I’ve been to several up in Pittsburgh.
I can only imagine how much fun that would be! Thank you so much and Happy Book Birthday 🙂
8 Tantalizing Tidbits:
1. A Must read book and why? The Prince of Tides by Pat Conroy. This is one of the most beautifully epic books ever. I’ve read it probably a dozen times and it never gets old for me.
2. What is one place that I should see if I visit your hometown? You should visit the Marine Corps Base aboard Camp Lejeune. My father is a retired Marine and he’d be happy to give you a tour!!!
3. Castles or Beaches? Castles! I was pretty much raised on the beach and I think I take it a bit for granted. I toured and stayed in some amazing castles in Ireland last year and if I could move there and live in one, I would in a heartbeat!
4. Hard Rock or Classical? Favorite Band or Artist? Hmmm… that is a tough one and I am going to have to say Both. I’m a huge fan of the Steve Miller Band and Led Zeppelin. But I mostly listen to stuff like NIN, Rob Zombie, The Offspring, Weezer and Jane’s Addiction to name a few off my favorites list.
5. What is your guilty pleasure? Easy!!! Ben & Jerry’s Chocolate Fudge Brownie Ice Cream.
6. What are you afraid of? I am terrified of spiders. I mean like really, really terrified. Even if I see a picture of one, I get all dizzy from the fear.
7. What’s your favorite TV show and why? I have two and I love them equally, and they are nothing alike. Buffy The Vampire Slayer and I love it because Buffy is such a strong heroine, and you know I love me a strong heroine, plus it’s funny as hell. I also adore The Walking Dead on AMC. I love the moral dilemmas they face in a world where there are no rules or laws.
8. If you could invite 5 people to dinner (not friends and family – that’s too easy) who would you invite? It could be anyone past or present. Abraham Lincoln, US Supreme Court Justice Earl Warren, JK Rowling, Oprah Winfrey and Marilyn Manson.
