I think I have evolved as well as my characters. Though I love romance, I am more practical that diversity is needed sometimes to give the story a little pop. In the beginning, I was writing exactly how I spoke and didn't care who liked it. Over the years, my ways of thinking have changed. Growth.
I read every new review that comes in and over the years I have developed a thick skin. It is quite clear to me now that everyone is not going to like or support what you have to offer.
I wasn't finding the book that I wanted to read so I wrote it. All of the romance novels that I read all sounded the same, I wanted some hood love missed with general romance and a little erotica thrown into the mix.
