Cree Storm lives and works in Southern New Mexico. The only thing she loves more than reading about gorgeous men and love is writing about them. Spending time with her friends and family is very important to her. When she is not writing or spending time with the love of her life you can find her watching the Oregon Mountains with a nice hot cup of coffee and her laptop or on face book with her many friends.
Q: Have you always been a writer?
A: No, but I always wanted to write. I did take some creative writing classes in high school and if there was an English class I was in it. I even started college to be a writer, but I had to drop out my first week to take care of my ailing mother and grandmother. Reading was and is my outlet. I love to read and do it as often as I can.
Q: What got you started writing?
A: I grew up in a small town where my closest friend was over 5 miles away. I had a lot of time on my own and I would create all kinds of stories in my head and act them out.
Q: Do you write every day?
A: Not every day. However, I love to research information for my books and I will do that when I am not writing.
Q: Do you think anyone can be a writer?
A: I think that if you want to be a writer and you are willing to put in the time it takes and listen to others for suggestions, then you can be a writer. However, I believe that anyone can do anything if they are willing to put in the work it takes to make it happen.
Q: Are the books you write based on people around you?
A: No. I create every character in my head. They develop as I write actually.
Q: If someone had a suggestion for a book would you take it?
A: Sure I would. However, it may not turn out how they envisioned, I have a crazy mind.
Q: What is your writing routine? How do you discipline yourself to keep at it?
A: Well I get up around 6:30am and I have my coffee. Then I Skype my fiancé, since he is in Canada, and we usually watch a movie or listen to music together as I write. If I run into a problem he will often listen to me talk it out. If I need to write and I don't get on it he is there to talk me into it. The biggest problem is that I need to be reminded to take breaks because time just gets away from me.
Q: The settings to your books seem so real. Are they?
A: Not all of them. But yes many are descriptions of locations of where I live actually.
Q: Are you working on a new book now?
A: Yes, I am. It is the next in the Twelve Labors series. I am also doing research for a few that will be spin offs of this series.
