Interview With Tate James

Interview With Tate James

 

1. Can you tell us a little bit about yourself?

 Yes! I live in Sydney, Australia but am from New Zealand so will always identify as a Kiwi. I'm mother to a 10 month old baby and my husband and I are in the hospitality business in my "other" life. I swear way too much, I'm sarcastic to the extreme and I laugh way too hard at silly puns, which is why Elements of Mischief has been so much fun to write with Caitlin. Addicted to coffee and red wine, allergic to exercise and living way way too much inside my own head.

2. Can you tell us a little about your books?

My first series, Kit Davenport, is a NA PNR RH UF ? So many letters! Essentially it's a Reverse Harem Paranormal, heavy on the plot as well as the romance. It's a bit dark and gritty, and all the characters are aged from 18 to 27 so it's aimed toward the New Adult scene. Kit is a feisty chick, very comfortable with her sexuality and not afraid to throw a punch or two. 

3. What book is your newest release?

The Vixen's Lead, Kit Davenport Book 1 (released yesterday) :)

4. When did you know you wanted to write a book?

When I was about... 7. Maybe. But only really came back to it more seriously 6 months ago. 

5. Do you have a favorite spot to write?

Anywhere there is space to put my wine :D but also using my husband's "gaming" computer because the keyboard makes really satisfying clicking noises when I type... and it lights up in rainbow colors. Cheap thrills over here. 

6. When you write do you write the first draft on a computer or paper and pen?

Computer, always. I hold my pen like a weirdo so it means I get hand cramp really quickly when handwriting. 

7. If you were a super-hero, what powers would you have?

My husband asks me this question ALL THE TIME and I can never settle on an answer I'm happy with. Right now, it'd be speed like Quicksilver from X-Men. 

8. What are writing projects are you currently working on?

Elements of Mischief, a co-write with one of my all time favorite authors CM Stunich, which is a Paranormal Reverse Harem Romance about magical plumbers... lol. Also, working on book 3 for Kit Davenport, called The Tiger's Ambush. A separate series which doesn't have a name but is about vampires, witches and dead things. And a couple of other secret projects in planning stages! Easily distracted.
