Interview with Author – Christine Germain

Christine M. Germain is an Award-Winning Best Selling Author of Horror and Mystery Thriller. Born March 8, 1981, in Brooklyn, New York, she found her passion for writing in 1993 and wrote her first horror story at twelve. Watching horror movies and reading young adult horror fiction novels influenced her love for writing a story with a protagonist that looked like her. African American women weren’t portrayed as solid leads in horror films or books. Instead of waiting to see if that would happen, she created a story that she would love to read and watch on the big screen that catered to more diverse characters.

Admiring authors such as Stephen King and R.L. Stein, Christine pursued her writing journey, majoring in literature, and graduated with a performing arts degree. Known for an imagination unlike any other, Christine is ready to take you to a thrilling shape-shifter world with her series, “The Brother’s Curse Saga.”

Interview with Author – Karin Cox

,

Karin L Cox is the author of the DARK GUARDIANS paranormal romance and dark fantasy series (Cruxim, Creche, and Creed), several short story and poetry anthologies, and a New Adult romance novel ‘What the Sea Wants.’ She officially has too many words in her brain, usually all swimming around in wine. Often, they come out in dribs and drabs, or sometimes in poetic explosions, but mostly she has to coax them out one at a time and wrangle them into line.

She lives in sunny Queensland, Australia, where she occasionally hits the beach in an effort to avoid a vitamin D deficiency from shutting herself in a dark room to converse with fictional people. She comes with all the usual accessories: cat, dog, kids, full-grown man-child, several outfit changes, and shoes she can’t seem to walk in so swaps for thongs/flip-flops. She would also like a dream house, a hot pink camper with a waterslide, and an unrealistically proportioned waist.

She enjoys camping, dancing, folk music, poetry, writing, wine and sometimes even Facebook.

Since I was four, I loved reading and I could understand more complex words than other children my age, so I picked up as many books as I could find. As my father worked a little cotton candy stand outside, I’d go to work with him, find a spot in the floor in front of the magazine rack and read until he closed down for the night. In the 1980’s, True Crime magazines were all the rage, so I ended up with a possibly unhealthy fascination with morbid articles found inside them. I figured I’d end up writing crime fiction when I was older, but as a child, enough true crime had been committed against me that I couldn’t stomach the thought of writing anything close to that genre, in my early teen years.

With a tumultuos home life, I decided to begin writing at age 13. I could create worlds where I wasn’t living in a hoarder house and didn’t have to fight off unwanted advances. These worlds were my saviors. They kept me safe. My local church youth group also gave me hope, yielding a higher power that I could look up to when times were rough. The kids in that youth group began to read my work. When I saw that I could bring them to tears of joy or sadness, I wondered if there was a real future for me in Journalism of some sort. I took my first class in seventh grade and that was all she wrote….. (Hmm, yes, pun intended.)

Today, I’m the survivor of sexual abuse and hoarder (pets and material items) parents. I give credit to my parents, though, at times, there were different decisions they could have made, they engrained the love of Jesus deep in my soul. I am now the devoted wife of a wonderful, loyal, loving husband, the proud mother of four kids, a ecstatic grandmother, and a fur-baby pet mom. Paws and Claws Pet Rescue in Cherryville, NC is my contribution to help end homelessness for unwanted pets.

Independent Author, born and raised in Tennessee recently settled in Longview Texas after a fifteen year stint in EPT. Paranormal Romance Author

Not who everyone thinks she is.
The product of someone’s imagination.
The end result of a lifetime wishing to get out.
Do not buy the lie.
If you live in fear, you give up freedom.
Taking the risk and making the leap.
Too much of anything is a bad thing.
Innuendo floating on the mist that rises above the water.
Walk away and leave it all behind.
Telling the story that haunts a fantasy.
Catching a dream.
She does not exist.
