Tell us your name and then a bit about yourself.

Darlene Kuncytes – I’m a native Ohioan who swears I came out of the womb with a book in my hand and a story on my lips! I’m a proud coffee addict that believes you should always find the funny in everyday life!

When you are writing a book, which is harder? The first book in the series or the others after it?

Right now, I’m working on book 4 in my Supernatural Desire Series, and it has been a slow go. Book 4 will be the last in this series, so it is much harder for me to write, and I think it’s because I know that I’m saying goodbye to these characters that I love so much.

When writing a series how do you keep things fresh, for both your readers and also yourself?

Each book in my series features a different set of main characters, yet the other characters show up in each other’s books, so I get to continue to allow the characters to grow and develop and that for me is a blast. I will also change locations and of course the situations in each book is different.

Writing can be an emotionally draining and stressful pursuit. Any tips for aspiring writers?

Breathe. Let the characters speak to you. And don’t push it. Your readers will feel it if it’s forced.

On a typical day, how much time do you spend writing?

Not nearly enough. lol Right now that is my biggest problem. I just never have the time I need.

Do you have a favorite character that you have written? If so, who? And what makes them so special.

That is one of the hardest questions to answer. I love my characters so much. All of them. If I had to choose, I would say Desmond from A Vampire’s Saving Embrace. He was my first, lol. But I also love how he evolves throughout the books in a wonderful and subtle way.

What is your definition of success?

Having readers come to you and tell you that they love what you do.
