\"Molly<\/p>\n

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

Molly McLain. I’m from Wisconsin, am married, and a mom to three kiddos. I write steamy small town romance with blue collar heroes and spunky heroines. <\/span><\/p>\n

When you are writing a book, which is harder? The first book in the series or the others after it?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

They’re all hard! The first book has to be just right to grab readers’ attention. Then the next books have to be similar, but different, too. Personally, I think I like first books better, because they set the premise for a new world and everything is fresh and new, but it’s also really fun to write cameos of previous in characters in subsequent books, too!<\/span><\/p>\n

Writing can be an emotionally draining and stressful pursuit. Any tips for aspiring writers?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Don’t compare your author journey to others. Set goals that work for you and measure your success by those accomplishments, not what you see other authors doing. <\/span><\/p>\n

On a typical day, how much time do you spend writing?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

I spend about two hours a day writing romance. I also write for my day job, too, so some days it’s really hard to spend any more time in front of my laptop. <\/span><\/p>\n

Do you have a favorite character that you have written? If so, who? And what makes them so special.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

This is like asking a mom to choose her favorite child! They’re all special for different reasons. <\/span><\/p>\n
