From what
her bio states, “She likes her action hot and her bad boys hotter. She
certainly doesn’t hold back on either one in her writing!”. This I can definitely attest to!!
So, lets
begin!
How would you introduce yourself and your
writing to new readers?
W: I would say, I don’t care who you are or
what you typically read, you should give my books a try. They make you feel and hopefully stay with
you long after the book is over. That’s my goal with every book and I truly
believe I write books everyone
should read… and their grandmother too.
When did you start writing and what was the first book that you ever wrote, not necessarily the first ever published.
W: Scandal, now unpublished, was the first
book I wrote about 5 years ago. I waited
another 2 years (had a baby and got preggers with number 2 in the meantime) before finishing it and taking
publishing seriously.
To date, out of all your books, which one do
you hold closest to your heart. Why?
W: Possessive, a particular character in it
is based off of someone in my real life.
I don’t wish to elaborate at the moment.
Merciless,
my latest always leaves my heart raw.
And now
I’m literally just moving backwards in my publishing order. I love every book
I write. Every single one.
You did a rebranding recently. What does this mean for you and us the
readers?
W: I wanted a new look that signified the
emotional side of my writing. When I
moved wide, I wrote my heart out because I truly thought I was starting
over. And
the books feel different, so I wanted to separate classic Willow with my current writing. I’ll be publishing on both still, but I
wanted to make the difference in the
writing known.
W: I can tell you you’ve got to read
it. Carter is my most demanding
anti-hero I’ve ever written and you’ve never read a character like him
before. It’s intense and he will captivate you…
What can your readers expect from you this
year?
W: My best work. Every book I strive for bigger and
better. Edge-of-the-seat gripping books
that stay with you long after the books are done. I’ll do my best to make you feel what the
characters feel and ensure that love will conquer everything, not matter how dark things may get.
How did publishing your first book change your
process of writing?
W: Well publishing doesn’t necessarily
correlate with my writing - I see them as separate tasks. I have a business side, the marketer and
publisher and then the artist side,
the writer. I will say some business
decisions effect my artist side, but I
do my best to keep them separate. I
write for me and not the business. I
hope it always stays that way.
How many unpublished and half-finished books do
you have?
W: Two.
My first and oldest book is unpublished.
And I have a novella, Infatuation, that I intend to make a novel and
write a series based on it’s world sometime in 2019.
What does literary success look like to you?
W: Continuing to have the desire to write,
even when the business is daunting.
Do you read your book reviews? How do you deal
with bad or good ones?
W: Yes.
I have voodoo dolls. Just
kidding. I try to focus on constructive
criticism so I can improve my writing as well as the positives from readers. With anxiety of my upcoming release, reading the reviews has been a true
blessing. And I’m so thankful for
readers who write reviews. Both
constructive and positive
I want to thank Willow Winters for taking the
time to answer these questions. I also
wish to congratulate her on her most recent release Merciless.
I enjoyed this book so much and want everyone
to have a chance at reading this thrilling and exciting book in a new series.
I will be gifting 2 e-books of
Merciless. All you have to do is add it
to your TBR and comment below to tell me its done! Optional: Like & Share!!

UPCOMING RELEASE
Willow
Winters is so happy to be a USA Today, Wall Street Journal and #1 Contemporary
Bestselling Romance Author. She likes her action hot and her bad boys hotter.
She certainly doesn’t hold back on either one in her writing!
Willow
started writing after having her little girl, Evie, December 2015. All during
her pregnancy with Evie she continued to read and she only wanted to read
romance. She was reading a book a day — sometimes two.
In
January 2016 Willow was staying up late with Evie and just thinking of all these
stories. They came to her constantly so she finally sat down and just started
writing. She always wanted to do it so she figured, why not? Today Willow
cannot be happier for making that decision!
