Question & Answer with Piper Kay!
1) What has been your favorite book to write so far? Oh wow! This is going to cause a riot in my head. Lol Believe it or not, no one has asked me this before. ~taps foot~ I guess so far, it’s a toss-up between Payce’s Passion and Invicta.
2) Who has been the character that has stuck with you the most through your writing experience? Hmmm…well, damn! Lol. That’s a tough one. Lmao. I don’t think it’s just been one character that’s stuck with me, maybe one trait from several of the characters. The bad boy. The one that’s usually too damn cocky for his own good & has an ass full of arrogance attached to him, basically the tough guy characteristics. The one that draws attention to himself, without even trying. Payce, Kade, and Mickey all have a bit of him, Toryn too. All of the characters do to a point, he’s the one you want to save from himself.
3) What inspired your Invicta Series? Okay, contrary to popular belief, it’s not a certain cockyboys cover image, though he sure didn’t hurt it at all. LOL It was just an idea that hit me about two years ago, in a dream.
4) Who are your writing influences? Several people. One is Poppet, she is an incredible writer and thinker, then of course Rue Volley and Kindle Alexander. These ladies are amazing to stalk, I mean watch. hahaha
5) When you're not busy writing, what is your favorite thing to do? Sleep, eat, read, watch tv, grab a movie, etc All those things that I forget to do when writing.
6) What are you reading now? Just finished up Take by Ella Frank (who will be on my blog the same week as this interview-Yay.)
7) You said you started "scribbling in 2010" but what started that scribbling? Were the ideas there, you just needed a push, or were there experiences in your life or another's that inspired you to put pen to
paper? I just started scribbling-lol No, I had some personal things going on in my life at that time and I needed an escape. I read so much then, and stayed busy with family, or with my painting, crafting…anything to keep my mind away from real life basically.
Writing became my escape at that point. I was in a very unhappy marriage at the time, basically watching life pass me by and decided to make a change. My very best friend from the time we were in 6th grade or so, was suddenly back in my life via facebook, as were so many others. (I basically had disappeared off the face of the earth, not for any
particular reason, other than I thought that is just what happened when you were married that long.) Long story short, my best friend Bobby, who had just been published the summer of 2010 encouraged me to continue, along with several other friends, so I just dived in with both feet first. Unfortunately in 2011, he passed away, but I kept on going, and ended up publishing a year later.
8) What do you have in store for your fans this upcoming year? Oh 2015 will be exciting, I finish out The Passion Series in January, will also come out with hopefully two more in the Invicta Series to close that one out. But I am so looking forward to a MC series I will be starting over next summer (I hope).
