Where Fiction and Reality Meet
Why did I choose Black Wolf? Black Wolf is one of my favourite stories for a number of reasons. It was originally plotted over drinks with my sister and my cousins and stemmed from a comment my cousin made about licking furry balls… Don’t ask. So, every time I think of the story I do...

Why did I choose The Decisions We Make? “Decisions” is one of my first written stories, and certainly one of the first from my own publisher Love Lane Books. I love the story so much. Daniel is the young orphan who is taken in by a beautiful family. When I look back at this book... Continue Reading →

Writing werewolves in the real world. When Lisa at The Novel Approach offered me a chance to give one of my older books a bump, I wasn't sure which one to choose. But it turns out, I still can't resist my first werewolf, Simon. So it had to be Unacceptable Risk. When I wrote the... Continue Reading →

If asked which of my novels is my favourite one, I always say the same thing: I have no favourite — each and every one of my novels tell a different story, a story that was important to me at the time, and, as such, they each have their own special spot on the bookshelf... Continue Reading →

A long time ago—okay, really not that long ago—a couple of years at the most, I wrote a book. Slapped a title on it—Dirty Kiss—and sent it off to Dreamspinner Press in the hopes of someone there maybe liking it. And they did. And they bought it. And I squeed. No, really. I squeed because...

TNA: Why did you choose Widdershins for the name of your fictional city? JLH: I spent weeks wracking my brain trying to come up with something interesting and/or vaguely creepy without result, so in the first couple of chapters I wrote it was [town name], which got really tiresome after a while. Then one day... Continue Reading →

"I had this idea once." How many times have you told someone you were a writer and, within nanoseconds, heard those four innocent little words balloon into what promises to be a story which, even if it stopped at three words, is WAY too long? We all have ideas. All of us. Imagination is the... Continue Reading →
