Marisa Chenery
marisa-chenery Marisa Chenery was always a lover of books, but after reading her first historical romance novel, she found herself hooked. Having inherited a love for the written word, she soon started writing her own novels.
After trying her hand at writing historicals, she now also writes paranormals. Marisa lives in Ontario, Canada with her husband and four children. She would love to hear from you, so stop by her website and send her an email while you're there.
Q: When did you know you wanted to be a writer?
A: I was seventeen when I decided I wanted to try my hand at writing. At the time, I didn't own a computer or even a typewriter so I ended up writing it on three ringed lined paper. I never did finish that book, and I still have it sitting in a binder down in my basement. It wasn't until I was in my thirties did I seriously take up writing again.
The very first book I wrote was Lady Knight, which will be published here at Siren. And I actually hand wrote it all on coil ring notebooks before typing it on my computer.
Q: How often do you write?
A: I usually write everyday when I have a work in process. Most days I can write twice a day for about an hour to two hours each time. Sometimes it doesn't work out and I may only write once. Being a stay at home Mom to four children, finding time for myself can sometimes come at a premium. Once I've finished a book I tend to give myself some time off from writing for a week or two to brainstorm the next story I have in my head.
Q: What is your favorite genre to write?
A: When I first started writing I was really into historicals. Now, I have to say my favorite are paranormals.
Q: Who are some of your favorite authors to read?
A: I have quite a few authors I really love to read, but I do have three who are my favoriteMary Janice Davidson, Sherrilyn Kenyon and Karen Marie Moning. I've read just about every book those authors have written.
Q: What do you do with your spare time?
A: Besides writing, I love to read. If it wasn't for the library I would be poor. If I don't have a book to read everyday I start to feel a little lost. I also like to go to the gym a couple times of week. I've done weight training for over twenty years. I call gym workouts my sanity breaks. Slugging around weights is a great stress reliever I've found.
