"The pain of loss and the many secrets she kept from me would alter my life and heart forever. I just wish I would have known what was coming."—Moonlight Lost YA Novel

Jasmine pulls a letter out of her pocket and begins to read it to Caleb as her tears begin to smear the ink. When she is finished she moves aside some of the gravel and folds it back up placing it in the spot she’s made. Covering it up she looks over at me with her glistening eyes. "He would have liked you because you drive a big truck," she says smiling through her tears.  As we are leaving she looks back and whispers, "I love you, Caleb and you will always be with me." — Contradiction, An NA novel



About Sabrina Archer:
I am a 35 year old mother of three who has always dreamed of being a writer.  From the time I was small I always had my nose in a book and would make up my stories.  After many years and a whole lot of life that dream became blazing to life after I had ordered a book for my oldest daughter.  Feeling the content was a bit much for my then 9 year old I decided to write one for her. As I began the story grew and I decided to show it to a coworker.  After she had read Moonlight Lost she pushed me to try and get it published. Being new and having no idea what to do I found a book my favorite author has written about self publishing and went for it. On June 12, 2015 I will be publishing my third book and I am proud to say Moonlight Lost has recently been picked up by a small publishing house and  I about fainted when I found it at Books-A-Million! 


 Interview With Sabrina Archer:
1. Can you tell us a little about your books? 
My first two are YA/ teen paranormal and my third is classified as NA

2. Do you have a favorite character to write about?
 
Yes! Jayde and Scarlet were so much fun. They were based on my sister and a cousin. There is so much of them in the charactera that when they read the books for the first time they called me and were thrilled.  Brandon from my third book has been the most fun so far. This was my first time really writing from a male POV and my muse was awesomely accommodating.

3. What inspires you to write? 
It's something I always wanted to do. I was the kid who would rewrite homework assignments over and over. Today, it's my kids. I wanted to encourage them to follow their dreams no matter how impossible it may seem.

4. When did you know you wanted to write a book? 
When I realized my daughter likes to read as much as me.

5. Do you have any odd writing habits? 
I guess you could say so lol. I carry around a notebook and don't always write in order. Sometimes I have to bridge scenes together and most of the time it works. The ones that don't I save.  You never know when an awesome idea will hit.

6. Do you have a favorite spot to write? 
I like to write while watching tv with the kids. Of course there is this fear of a one liner from the shows ending up in there lol.

7. Do you listen to music while you write? 
If the kids aren't home, I do.
8. What's one random fact about yourself that you can share? 
I have an unhealthy addiction to circus peanuts.
9. What writing projects are you currently working on? 
I'm working on the third book in the Moonlight Series, a YA coming of age type story and a contemporary romance.
