Author A.C. Wilds #interview

Please give a warm welcome toTell us a bit about yourself

I was born and raised in NYC. I live in an outer borough with my husband and two daughters. I am a bibliophile, who has always had a book in hand since I was little. I have a very strong obsession with horses, and it’s my dream to meet a unicorn.

Have you always wanted to become an author?

Yes since I was little. It was something that was always a life goal for me.

What was your inspiration for your current book/series?

I have dreams and then I write about them. Or when I am driving, something will pop into my head and I create stories around the idea. Sometimes my brain scares me.

What are you working on now?

I’m currently writing the second book in the Changer Series, Claiming Death. Death Card, book 1 released on February 1st.

Do you have any quirks while writing?

I need to have no one around me, and gummi bears. All the gummi bears. They are my writing fuel.

What are your hopes for the future?

My goal this year is to publish 5 books. I have two of those down, as my second book will be published on February 14th. It’s a prequel to a new series. It is titled Sinner’s Harem.

Do you have any advice for new authors about the publishing world?

You need to write at the right time. It took me years to get comfortable enough to write my story. I used NaNoWriMo as the push I needed. The most important thing is don’t force it. When you force it, your story is going to get lost.

Do you have anything to say to your fans?

Holy Cannoli you guys! Since before pre-order you all have been amazing. I cannot thank you enough for the support you provide. It is truly amazing to be a part of this amazing community. All the love that you send me and the cheering you do, make this author thing so much sweeter. Thank you, Wild Ones from the bottom of my heart! XoxoBuy links
