What’s your least favorite thing about being a writer?

I dislike some of the behind-the-scenes maintenance needed to keep an author business afloat, like keeping track of expenses and advertising efforts. I’m constantly working on streamlining my process so I can spend more time writing.

Do you have an agent or publisher?

I self-publish most of my books through my own publishing company, Summer Night Publishing. One of my books, Brazen Player, is published by another author. I’m also considering a traditional publishing offer.
