The key challenges I had was deciding on an editor. Editing can be very expensive, and then you have to look at the editor’s past work. Also advertising is difficult because it’s the only way people know your book has been released.

Going to certain parks in the city of Chicago are meaningful to me. There’s a lot of good memories in the city of Chicago.

Q5. Is there lots to do before you drive in and start writing a book?

Not for me. The stories really come from the heart.

Q6. How long did it take you to write ‘Bloodlines’ book?

It took me about three years because I was also balancing school at the time.

Q7. On what all platforms readers can find ‘Bloodlines’ book to buy?

My book will be in the ebook form and as a paperback.

Q8. Tell us about the process of coming up with the book cover and the title ‘Bloodlines’?

Looking at the over topic of the storyline and discussing with my editor with the suggestion of a friend.

Q9. When writing a book how do you keep things fresh, for both your readers and also yourself?

I always have to remember everyone is my story has a different personality, and that helps keep the story fresh.

Q10. Are there any secrets from the book (that aren’t in the blurb), you can share with your readers?

The secret I can tell is that Annabelle and Judy Mays will meet again.
