Last week I had the extreme pleasure of reviewing Supernaturally Kissed by Stacey Kennedy. That review is HERE. This week I have the even better pleasure of interviewing Stacey, herself! Here's that interview, hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
~*~*~*~
Hi Stacey, it’s nice
to talk to you again! Happy Leap Year
Day! (that’s a holiday, right? LOL).
So I’ve just recently finished Supernaturally Kissed. What a great story! Can you tell our readers something about this
story that isn’t in the synopsis?
Thanks! All in all, the Frostbite series is about a woman
who has a gift to talk to ghosts. It’s the journey of her understanding why she
can do this and each book in the series will give more answers. But within each
book there will be a mystery of some kind that has to be solved and there’s
also the romance between Tess and Kipp—a ghost that has stolen Tess’s heart.
And how did you come about the characters of Kipp and Tess?
It was odd really, but this story just smacked into my head
when I was writing another. I liked the idea of a woman paired with a ghost and
all the conflict that came along with it. To be honest, I had no clue how the
series would unfold when I started writing SUPERNATURALLY KISSED. But after I
wrote the second book, DEMONICALLY TEMPTED it became clear cut. I know exactly
what will happen in all four of the books and how the series will end.
I really loved Tess’s best friend Caley. She was very personal and fun, with a wild
side. Will we see more of her in the
future?
YAH! I’m so happy you enjoyed, Caley. Some people love her
while others want to hurt her. LOL! But that’s just how her character
developed. She’s very protective over her friend, Tess and that’s because of
what Tess goes through. But Caley is also very overbearing and in your face.
The thing I love about their friendship is that Caley isn’t
perfect. She has major flaws. And while some might think her annoying for that
reason, I love her for it. It makes their friendship more real to me because
people are flawed. But one thing is
so strong between them and that’s loyalty. Caley accepts Tess with all her
ghost seeing abilities and Tess accepts Caley for her pushy ways. It’s a
friendship that I really enjoy to write.
And yes, you will see more of Caley. She has a very small
role in book two of the Frostbite series, which is currently in the hands of my
editor. But she will also make appearances in all of the other books as well.
Truthfully, I’d really LOVE to write a novella about Caley and Zach, so that
might be in the future too!
If you were making a movie of Supernaturally Kissed, who
would play Tess and Kipp?
For Kipp, I’d want Paul Walker. Of course, he’d have to wear
a colored contact to make one eye brown to be the perfect Kipp, but he’s pretty
much spot on too.
So Stacey, do you like to listen to music or munch on
anything while writing, or is it straight to business with no distractions?
It’s usually straight down to business. I can’t listen to
music because it’s too distracting and I can’t focus. I’ve grown used to
listening to my kids in the background so I can tune them out. Now I tend to
write at the local Starbucks and it’s a busy place, but that kind of noise I
can ignore. I really love music and am known to sing in my car so it’s really
hard for me to be listening to music when I write because all I’ll end up doing
is singing.
You also write some wonderful erotica and romantic
erotica. Is it hard to switch between a
UF type story and a naughty erotica story?
Now some lighter questions…. Winter or Summer? Summer
Favorite paranormal being? Guardians
What’s scarier, clowns or spiders? Spiders *shudders*
Favorite holiday? Christmas
And lastly, what can we look forward to from you in the
upcoming months?
BEG FOR IT, the next Pact of Seduction book comes out around
the end of May. It’s a VERY HOT BDSM erotic romance novella and I enjoyed
writing every word of that book. I do believe it might be my favorite novella
ever!
In July, WEREWOLVES BE DAMNED will be released, which is
coming out in trade paperback. I love the heroine, Nexi so I’m very excited to
get these full-length novels out there.
And lastly, I’m still plugging away at THE CAT’S MEOW. It’s more than half done and in fact, all the chapters are mapped out, but I just haven’t had the time to get back to it. It’s going to be a self-published novel so once it’s ready it’ll be out nice and quick.
So yes, busy, busy times, but lots of fun book releases!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to interview with me
today! I really appreciate it J
