Tell us your name and then a bit about yourself.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tricia Andersen lives in Iowa with her husband, Brian and her three children \u2013 her sons, Jake and Jon, and her daughter, Alex. She graduated from the University of Iowa with a Bachelor of Arts in English and from Kirkwood Community College with an Associate of Arts degree in Communications Media\/Public Relations.
\nAlong with writing (which she loves to do), Tricia practices Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, coaches and participates in track and field, reads, sews and is involved in many of her children’s activities.<\/span><\/p>\n

When and Why did you start to write?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’ve been writing since I was in preschool, since before I could put words together to make a story. I write because I don’t know what life without writing would be like. I write because I love sharing the stories in my head.<\/span><\/p>\n

What authors do you always read or suggest to others?I<\/strong><\/p>\n

I love Karen Marie Moning<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the most surprising thing you have found out with the writing process?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I love the way writing evolves the longer I write. What I wrote five years ago is nothing like what I write now and I’m sure what I write five years from now will be totally different.<\/span><\/p>\n

What are you working on now?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I am working on Bantamweight (Hallow Brothers Series #5), Compromised (the final book of the Black Irish Series) and a paranormal\/Greek god romance<\/span><\/p>\n

When writing are you a pantser or plotter?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’m a little bit of both. I like having a general idea where the book is going and get a timeline established. Then I go for it.<\/span><\/p>\n
