Welcome Kasey Moone. First
I’d love you to introduce yourself.
I’ve been writing interracial erotic romance for about 5
years now. I actually started writing literary fiction then switched to romance
writing because I enjoyed it better. I’ve always been a huge romance fan, and
when I started writing in the genre, I knew instantly it was the genre I was
supposed to explore. What else…I’m a die-hard romantic at heart and I love
writing!
Tell us about your
latest release.
Campus Touch is a
story that I am self-publishing through Amazon, Smashwords, and AllRomance. It
should be out sometime in November, if not sooner. It is the second book in my
Edson College series, which a paranormal series that follows a group of hunky
werewolf cousins in a prestigious college in Michigan. They are all very rowdy,
funny cousins, and they all find their better halves (or lifemates) on campus.
It’s a quick, action-packed story that I think readers will enjoy. The story
focuses on a white male and a black female. The first book in the series is
entitled Campus Prowl and is available
at Amazon and AllRomance.
Now I have a few
questions for you – I have found readers do like to know fun things about us
writers.
1.) Who is your favorite villain – it can be
from a book (even one of yours), movie or TV show. And why?
Wicked Witch of the East. She was the first villain that
really frightened me as a child. Guess I haven’t gotten over it.
2.) Who is your
favorite character out of your books? Why?
That’s a hard one! Definitely Anelle Franklin from my first
story Her Snowbound Knight. I like
her because she’s tough but vulnerable, and of course she’s the first character
I ever written in the romance genre that made me want to explore the industry.
She’ll always be my first love. Her and her handsome man, Jasper Madison.
3.) What do genre do
you write? What made you pick that one?
Interracial erotica. I picked interracial because I believe
love crosses all boundaries (race, religion, political status) and I want to
give a voice to couples that may be underrepresented in the romance industry. I
also think it’s fun writing about two people from different backgrounds. An
interracial writer can explore important topic.
4.) What are you
working on now?
An interracial, contemporary romance called Small Talk. Then it’s off to another
book in the Edson College series!
5.) What got you to
start writing?
I started writing when I was 12, and wrote my first novel
too! It was called Trouble in Rainbow
Land. LOL. I started writing because I was always a quiet kid, sort of a
loner, very imaginative and creative, I liked making up stories. I was a bit of
a fibber—and sometimes that would get me in trouble. One day I channeled that
energy into actually writing stories and the rest is history. I studied writing
all throughout school, and even have a graduate degree in it. It is truly my
passion. I can’t imagine doing anything else and I hope to do it full-time in
the near future.
6.) Where do you get
your ideas from?
Small moments. Something totally insignificant will happen,
and I’ll brainstorm in my head for a few moments to try to figure out if a
story could come from it. Sometimes I get it from watching movies, television
shows, conversations I overhear. But it’s usually something totally random that
has me rushing to my notebook to record it.
7.) What would people
who read your work be surprised to find out about you?
8.) Do you have any
special talents?
Double jointed. Used to dance professionally. Excellent
listener. Can remember random movie quotes.
9.) What was the one
piece of advice you received when you were an aspiring author that has stuck
with you? Why?
“Write with your heart in the first draft, and with your
brain in the second.” For some reason, that always stayed with me. One of my
instructors offered this advice to me in school, and it’s helped me not to be
so critical of myself in the first draft. Note: I used to have a terrible inner
critic.
10.) If you could talk
to any famous figure (present, past or fictional) who would it be and what
would you talk about?
Muhammad Ali. I love his confidence. Don’t know what I’d ask
him though.
11.) What song would
you say describes your life?
Nelly Furtado’s “I’m Like a Bird” -- because I’m a bit of a free spirit, very
independent, creative, warm. I like my freedom.
12.) If you could come
back as any animal – what would it be?
A mighty Lion. Leos rule.
Henrietta “Rita” Evans has always been known as the quiet, black
girl on campus, some folks even nicknaming her “Mute” in jest. And she doesn’t
expect much out of her Winter Break at Edson College, but an equally quiet
environment. Until a member of the white campus elite starts running behind her
dormitory late at night. Starts warning her to stay away from him and the
woods. Starts making her feel more alive than she’s felt in a very long time…
Something is happening to Sal. Something he can’t control. Something threatening his last year of college and family’s werewolf heritage. And what’s worse, a quiet, mocha beauty can’t seem to mind her own business, tempting him at every turn. Who cares if she has the sweetest lips he’s ever seen? Who cares if her scent drives him mad? He has to keep her at a distance, for much more is at stake than the heat blazing between them.
And if he doesn’t put it out, they’ll both burn…
