Interview: Kristy Centeno - Call of the Wolf

1. Tell us a little about yourself.

I’m a hard working mother of four and the eldest of four children. I was born in a small City in a Caribbean island some twenty something years ago and moved to the USA when I was four. I developed a love for books even before I could read them and my parents encouraged my passion by supplying a healthy amount of books, which I read often.

2. What genre do you write?

Paranormal Romance, Erotic Romance, Horror, Young Adult.

3. Please tell us about your latest release (insert title) and how you came up with the idea.

Call of the Wolf, which was released on July 13th, is my debut novel. The plot for this book was actually born out of an idea I had one night while I was lying in bed. For some crazy reason I cannot yet explain, I had the sudden flash image of this odd looking vampire with long white hair and pale blue eyes standing in the middle of the woods, staring at a young werewolf female who had no idea how to identify his supernatural nature. When this crossed my mind I began to imagine how to play with that concept and make it work into a story. A few months after that, Call of the Wolf was completed.

4. Is it part of a series?

Yes. The Forbidden Mate series.

5. A must have snack while you write.

Usually it’s a granola bar and a glass of cold water.

6. A fact that someone might not know about you. 

When things get too stressful for me I tend to procrastinate : )

7. If you had to choose a favorite book that you’ve written, which would it be? 

 Yes, Enchanter. The concept for this book developed so quickly and so suddenly that for the entire time I was writing it, I felt as if the main characters were actually relating the events I was typing down. The storyline is different and something I’m sure readers will enjoy. Hopefully, as much as I do.

8. Advice to writers who have yet to be published.

Believe in your stories because if you don’t, no one else will. And most importantly, never give up. No matter how many road blocks you get to, there’s always a way around them.

9. Is there a genre you haven’t written yet that you want to?

Absolutely, historical romance. Because these stories usually require a lot of research, I am not able to sit down and write a historical romance novel right now, but I hope to be able to have plenty of free time in the future for a project as complicated as this one would be. But I love a challenge so we’ll see how things go.

10. Any quirky habits? 

Yes. I unconsciously move my right foot up and down when I’m engrossed in something.

11. Have you written a character that most resembles you?

Yes, Marjorie Emery from Secrets of the Moon. Well, the things she does resemble me more than her physical appearance.

12. What type of hero do you enjoy writing about?

The ones that are the complete opposite of me. 

13. What are you currently reading?

Angel’s Heart from Lisa Bilbrey.

14. What are you currently working on?

I am currently working on book two of the Forbidden Mate series called Day and Night.
