NRR: When did you know you wanted to
become a writer?
DN: When I was twelve. I have
always loved writing.
NRR: How were you inspired to write
Tangled Blood Lines?
DN: My husband and I own a
demolition business. When the recession hit in 2008 and the work slowed,
we had a discussion one night about the future. I mentioned that I wanted
to write a novel and he encouraged me to do so. As for the concept of
Tangled Blood Lines, I wanted to create a series that brought back old school
type vampires into today's world with a few twists.
DN: Never give up.
Write, write and write more until the ink drys. Then go get more ink to
write even more!
NRR: What would you say was the
easiest/most challenging part of writing Tangled Blood Lines?
DN: The easiest part of
writing Tangle Blood Lines was developing the concepts and characters.
The most challenging part was dealing with and overcoming the writer's block.
NRR: What is your guilty pleasure?
DN: My husband and I going to
the beach.
NRR: Can you share with us the
storyline to Tangled Blood Lines? Of course no spoilers.
DN: Tangled Blood Lines is a
complex mixture of "old-school" vampires, murder and crime scene
investigations with a touch of wizards,
witches, werewolves and half-breeds;
all colliding in today's world. Our main character, Cianna Fitzgerald, is
a young "retired" crime scene
investigator who knows her heritage
is one mixed with Irish pixie giving her telepathic ability. She gets
thrown back into the chaos of
brutuality and murder she walked
away from. The cases she walked away from stayed cold for five years
until she reunites with her Uncle/boss
and her estranged husband,
Declan. She witnesses two murders first hand where the murderer is a
vampire. Cianna's world turns upside down,
encountering vampires, werewolves,
witches and then her daughter gets kidnapped. Declan and Cianna travel
around the world and underworld to
try and find her. Truths turn
into lies, reality is questioned and nothing is what it seems - or is it?
NRR: What is next in the works for
you?
DN: I am currently working on
Book Two of the Tangled Legacy Series. I also have three other books
planned and I'm toying with the idea of
a children's series
NRR: Thank you for joining us
