Author Interview

1. What inspired you to become a Multicultural, IR, or BWWM Romance Writer?

Writing Multicultural books actually happened unexpectedly. After dealing with personal circumstances in my own personal life I decided to write as therapy to escape from the daily agony that I was enduring at the time.

2. Besides writing, what are some of your favorite things?

I love traveling as well as spending quality time with close family and friends. I also enjoy coordinating events and parties.

3. Name at least two (2) authors that you admire who write Multicultural, IR, or BWWM Romance?

Sister Souljah and Sheena Binkley are two Romance authors I admire.

4. What types of genre of books do you enjoy reading? What are you currently reading?

I love reading Christian Fiction as well as Romance; I am currently reading 'Lost Within' by T.S. Brumsey.

5. Are you working on anything new? If so, when can we expect it to be released?

The third and final book of the 'One Night Only' series titled 'Playing with Fire' will be released in November of this year.

6. Do you have any scheduled upcoming events; such as book signing, interviews, etc.?

Yes I do have upcoming events: On October 8th I will be doing an interview with OG Productions.

7. Where do you expect to be in your career as an author five (5) years from now?

Iwould like to offer literary services to potential new authors as well as organize events that promote reading and different writing services.

8. What advice can you give to new authors who's interested in writing in this genre?

I would definitely advise new authors to research this genre and be sure that this genre relates to the work that they have written. I would recommend that they work with a publisher who is familiar with this genre. My last words to any new author is to 'relax and become the author you were created to be, don't duplicate anyone, but instead be yourself.'


Special message from Lynette to you …

Everything that happens in life if either a lesson or a blessing. Embrace life and never stop believing in yourself. You will never know what you can achieve until you step out on faith and believe.
