Friday's Guest - Kryssie Fortune #MFRWauthor #Interview #romance

What were you in your life before you became a writer? Did this influence your writing?

A working mum. Mostly I worked as a purchase ledger clerk, but my last few working years (Yes, I’m retired) I worked on Emmerdale – one of the UK’s three big soaps. I started out importing scripts onto the in-house program but eventually technology made me redundant. Emmerdale is like a family.  I had the option to stay on and work in other departments. Naturally, that’s what I did. Obviously, I got to read amazing scripts. I think that helped with the dialogue in my books.  

2.               Are you genre specific or general? Why? I don't mean genres like romance, mystery, fantasy etc. There are many subgenres of the above. 

I write whatever idea shouts loudest. I love my Scattered Siblings series. It’s centres around werewolves and their mates, but the Fae King is the one looking for his brothers and sisters.
My Heroes of Westhorpe Ridge series revolves around retired military men building their civilian lives in the coastal North Carolina Town of Westhorpe Ridge. Each fall for a local woman, but true love never runs smooth. The stories are as much adventure as romance. 
All my books are hot sexy reads 

3. Did your reading choices have anything to do with your choice of a genre or genres? 

I read anything, but I prefer whatever I read to have romantic elements. Maybe because I grew up reading Mills and Boon, or maybe because I’m a softy at heart. Vampires and Werewolves? Bring them on. Is the hero a former soldier? So much the better.

4. What's your latest release? 
Submission, Secrets, and the Soldier. It’s the fourth stand-alone romance in my Heroes of Westhorpe Ridge series. There’s no need to read the preceding romances, but if you have, it’s a chance to catch up on old friends and to make some new ones.

5. What are you working on now? 
My first ever Regency Romance. I’m not even sure which publisher to send it to yet since it’s a niche market. Fingers crossed I find a perfect fit.
