MY INTERVIEW WITH AUTHOR STEPHANIE NICHOLE

How and when did you get started as a writer?
I’ve been writing off and on for years but I didn’t really start writing books until sometime in 2016.
What are your goals as an author?
Well, my goal was to sign with a publishing company which I achieved that in June of this year so I guess now my goal is to just keep writing stories people enjoy.
When did you first consider yourself an author?
The first time I hit publish on my first book.

Did you have a hard time sharing your work with the public?
It does give me a little anxiety sometimes. I definitely have a hard time promoting myself. I feel very awkward.
What inspires you to write?
Inspiration comes from all different places songs, books, movies, tv, art, quotes…it varies.
If you could be one of your characters for a day, who would it be and why?
I’d be Arabella from the Magicals Trilogy. She is a really strong character plus she can do magic.
What are you working on at the moment?
I’m currently working on a secret project with my publishing company. I can tell you that is YA fantasy novel and that it centers around a town that is a supernatural hot bed. Hell hounds and witches might play a role 😉
Can you give a little morsel of what you are working on?
I can’t just yet. You’ll be the first to know as soon as I can say anything.
What can we expect in the near future?
I have a release on October 31st, Breaking Bloody Mary, it’s the sequel to Becoming Bloody Mary. I also have the third book in the James Brothers series, Force of Impact, releasing on November 5th.

If you could choose an author to be your mentor, who would it be?
Bromberg! She my favorite and the way she can create romance and chemistry between two characters is amazing!
Something personal about you people may be surprised to know?
I’m actually incredibly shy in person.
What is your greatest weakness?
Definitely, second guessing myself.

What is your greatest strength?
Always trying to see the bright side of things.
As a child, what did you want to do when you grew up?
I varied a lot. Singer, teacher, actor, photographer, journalist, graphic designer, fashion designer, author…
