What are you working on now?

Do you have any quirks while working?

What are your hopes for the future? 

I have a couple sci fi RHs coming out next year. Vampire aliens in one, and a Starfleet Academy meets Babylon 5 academy romance  for another, and also an UF one with a demi goddess working for a supernatural version of the FBI.

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

Do you have anything to say to your followers? 

I love you guys and appreciate all of the support!
