I would love to be apart of the Harry Potter world and not just because of the magic. I love the fierce loyalty that everyone in the book gives to each other despite their imperfections. I wish the world we lived in was much deeper than a few insta pics and skin deep friendships.

My favorite thing about being a writer is hearing the connections my readers make. Sometimes I hear the most peculiar suggestions and they either make me laugh or they spark an idea for me.

The only obstacle in your way is you. I suffer from depression and though it makes writing so much harder I still do it because when you find your passion you should follow it.

My inspiration comes from everywhere. Listening to music, traveling a random person in the grocery story. Trust one of my favorite characters came from a lady I met once in Krogers.

I always had a thing for vampires and werewolves, after Twilight who didn't. I wanted to go beyond that, I wanted to push the limit of science fiction and fantasy just to see where it would lead and Durable was born.
