Black & Romantic: Featured Author Michelle De Leon
1. Day job or full-time writer?
I currently have a day job that's lasted 18 years, but I'm working triple hard to become a full time. author/screenwriter. This global crisis has taught me there's no day like today and we have to use our precious time pursuing our dreams.
2. Biggest writing pet peeve?
I annoy my own self by having so many good ideas, but won't give myself ample time to work on them on a daily basis. Once I'm on a roll, I really roll; but so much more could get accomplished by just taking 45 minutes a day to write.
3. Favorite month of the year and why?
I'm an April baby and I love when my birthday falls on Good Friday or Easter. I also love April because spring is a beautiful season.
4. Favorite vacation spot?
Cruising is a wonderful vacation in itself. Docking at tropical islands is just the icing on the cake.
5. Cliffhanger or happily ever after?
I prefer a HEA as a reward for making it to the end of a story. Fans of the characters will follow them to the next adventure if there's a sequel, but we don't always have time to complete a series of books as readers so making them standalones is more satisfying to many.
6. What's the most expensive thing you've purchased for your writing career?
Last week I bought Final Draft 11 for screenwriters. Pricey, but 95% of the industry uses it for creating scripts.
7. What are you currently working on? What do you plan to do in the future?
Right now I'm writing Souly Yours; a BWWM novel where a white gospel singer falls in love with a black medical student who is an atheist. I hope to see it produced by Called Higher Studios where I'm an investor. I also have Protecting Mi Corazon and Love's Taken Over competing for Favourite Romance at www.booksoffice.com.
