👦 Samuel
dreamed of being a lot of things, but a monster trapped in a forest realm never
entered his mind. The Blacknoc Curse wasn't supposed to be true, only a
children's story meant to persuade them away from evil. Yet, here he was tasked
with hunting cursed kids. There's nothing left for Samuel except the horror
surrounding him. 👹
👧 Layla, a young girl tormented by the same curse, is dropped into the terrifying forest every night, running from the monsters intent on taking her life. She meets Samuel and vows to save all the children, especially Samuel, from their torment. 👺
Working together can they defeat the Blacknoc Curse?

I’m the typical introvert who couldn’t contain her wild
imagination. In my late teens, I started dabbling in writing. Since I didn’t
really know much about writing I couldn’t really go too far until I took an
online writing course that explained the basics of fiction writing. Once I
understood the basics it was like something clicked within me. I wanted to
learn more and write more. I wrote short stories, and then eventually took on
bigger projects like novellas and novels.
Describe yourself in 5 words or less!
Laid-back. Goofy. Loyal. Creative. Pensive.
When did you first consider yourself a writer?
I think the first time I made it official was when I decided
I wouldn’t treat it as a hobby anymore. I had to change my state of mind. I
wanted to stop dreaming and make my dream of getting published a reality. I
invested more time in reading about the craft of writing. I tried to write
more, even when I didn’t feel like it. Another process was slowly coming out of
my shell and letting others read my work for feedback. I think it’s the little
steps taken that slowly start to define who I am as a writer.
Which of your novels can you imagine made into a movie?
How about my current one? Curse of the Blacknoc Witch. I’m
sure most know it’s every author’s dream to get their book adapted into a film.
I wouldn’t mind seeing my book as a Netflix movie. Not as a series but a movie.
How cool would that be, right? I’d imagine awesome CGI to portray the monsters
and the magic. A real forest shot in the dark to show the setting. Ah, I could
dream though.
Can you tell us a little bit about the characters in Curse
of the Blacknoc Witch?
The main characters of Curse of the Blacknoc Witch are Samuel
Fawcett and Layla Marlowe. They’re teens who are both hunted by a wicked curse.
Samuel was a teen at one time before transforming into a monster. He’s supposed
to hunt and eat all the wicked kids but he was given a choice and uses that
chance to protect the weak. Layla is under the protection of Samuel. She’s bent
on breaking the curse for herself and the others who are tormented by the
curse. Samuel may not have hope for a new day but Layla holds onto that hope
for a day to come.
Where did you come up with the names in the story?
I google names for inspiration but I’m very picky about
choosing the names of my characters. The name I pick usually reflects the
personality of my character. If the name matches who the character is or
symbolizes them or their circumstance in any way, that’s the one I’ll usually
go with. For example, I could not decide between using Layla or Lilith. Both
names can have a similar meaning. ‘Of the night’ or ‘beauty.’
What did you enjoy most about writing this book?
I enjoyed watching the interactions between my main
characters, but really it was just a blast to see some of the action scenes
unfold. Monsters fighting monsters. Kids fighting monsters. So much fun. I love
action scenes!
Who designed your book covers?
I’m in love with the cover. Abigail Owen at The Wild Rose
Press, Inc designed the cover. She did such a great job of capturing the feel
of the book. The story takes place mostly at night in a forest. It has a witchy
and fantasy feel all while setting that dark mood. My publisher lets you have a
small say in the cover. I had the option of including one important element in
the cover. The designer worked those awesome witch knots you can see at the
corners of the book.
Anything specific you want to tell your readers?
As a reader myself, I just like to sit back and enjoy the
ride. So a note to the readers, I do hope my stories can be that escape for you
like the way I enjoy books. My characters are to inspire and entertain and it
is my wish that they are that influence for you.
Convince us why you
feel your book is a must read.
Eep, I really must sell it here, huh? Well, it’s filled with
twists and turns, and if you don’t mind a little creepy in your story about two
unlikely heroes filled with fantasy elements, romance, a sprinkle of humor, and
action, then I do believe this is a must read for you.
If your book had a candle, what scent would it be?
It would probably be a scent that reminded me of herbs to
match the witchy part and with a tinge of pine or forestry to match the
setting.
What is your writing process? For instance, do you do an
outline first? Do you do the chapters first?
Most of the time, I use an outline. An outline is like a map
that helps me see where I’m going. I like to have a plan to follow. Depending on how much detail you put into the
outline, you can only see as far as the light sprays. Without any light, I feel
like I’m walking blindly and this can be chaotic. Now, sometimes chaos is good.
It’s rare but I do like to write by the seat of my pants. The results can be
positive if you’re in search of something spontaneous.
