I’m a pipeline writer. I usually have three books in the works at any given time. One is in the final stage of production which means tedious proofreading and cover art. When I’m waiting for my editor or artist to do their jobs, I work on the first draft of the next book. It’s refreshing to bounce back and forth between old and new work. This strategy also helps me maintain continuity between books. While that’s going on, I’m also thinking about the book I haven’t even started yet. I take notes as ideas occur to me. Gradually, I build up an outline. After I publish, the pipeline moves forward and I go straight into the next project without a break.

Heroes

I write a lot about heroes. In my books and on my blog. I have always had a fascination with them. What makes a hero, a hero? What makes someone a hero? I’ve spent a good part of the last couple of years thinking about it and this is what I’ve come up with.
A hero sacrifices. He or she puts someone or something before themselves. They care about something else more than they care about themselves. To me that’s the definition. A hero doesn’t have to lay down their life but they have to do it at least metaphorically. They have to be willing to give up something big.
Why do people love heroes so much? Well, we want to be important. We want to matter. We want to be impressed. Heroes accomplish all of those things.
We also want to be like them. I know I fall very short of the mark but when I read about somebody, a soldier, a parent, a friend who sacrificed something big for the love of someone or something else? I’m impressed.
Who are the heroes in your life? I’ve had many. My dad, my husband, the boy my daughter graduated with who gave his life for our freedom in the war in Afghanistan. They are all heroes to me.
There are a few heroes in Crushing. I love creating admirable, strong characters and a few of them had a lot to say and I want to hear more. I never know which ones will be my favorites until the end. I may have to give a few of Crushing’s secondary characters their own heroic story sometime soon.
I love to hear hero stories. Who’s your hero?

Elena lives and writes in a suburb North of Los Angeles.  She has never lived anywhere besides California which is probably a good thing since she hates being cold and is terrified to drive in the snow. She loves being a wife and a mother to her two kids and three dogs, although really the bulldog is the fourth child who has never matured beyond the toddler stage.

A self proclaimed nerd, she has been writing since she was a child. She has only recently, however, come out of the closet about this to her family and friends.  They now understand better, but not completely, why she talks about characters in stories as if they are real people.

Embracing the Wolf by Stephanie Nelson

For the first time, Anna Avery was looking forward to the future. She’s mated to her soul mate. The pack has become her new family, and she has friends she can confide in. She had every reason to look ahead, until a vision put her future happiness in jeopardy.

Someone is set on destroying her mate, Adam, and only Anna can prevent this possible future. While trying to unravel the hazy web of her premonition, she finds out the annual pack conference will take place on her mountain. And Adam’s parents will be attending. As only a “made” wolf, Anna will have to face their prejudice and possibly make the hardest decision she has ever had to make. Because saving Adam’s life might just mean walking away from him for forever.

A lot of people ask me who I would pick for actors if my stories were ever made into movies. This is a very difficult question because no actors truly fit whom I imagine in my mind, but these people come closest.

Maggie Grace as Anna Avery

Chris Hemsworth as Adam Everwood

Luke Guldan as Sawyer

I’m not sure who she is, but when I saw this picture I instantly thought of Anna’s best friend, Elle.

Wentworth Miller as Wade

Again, I’m not sure who this guy is, but he made me think of Adam’s second in command, Joe.
