Interview
When did you first realize
you wanted to be a writer?
I took the OAT test in school and wrote a story about a
farmer and his dog. That was when I realized it's something I wanted to do.
How long did it take you to
write Darling Dark?
The first time I wrote Darling Dark it took me six months,
then I hated it and deleted the whole thing. The second time it took me two,
and I loved it.
What is your work schedule
like when you're writing?
When I re-write, I print out the whole document first. It
helps me to see the words away from the computer screen. I wouldn't say I have
a schedule exactly, though I do like to take a day or two away and come back at
it with fresh eyes.
What would you say is your
interesting writing quirk?
Rereading, I have to stop myself from going back or I'll end
up spending hours on starting to cut words and edit instead of finishing the
book.
Where do you get your
information or ideas for Darling Dark?
Darling Dark existed in my head years before I wrote it. I
knew the characters and what they looked like already. My idea's, I would like
to say are mostly pulled from my imagination. I like to put my own twist on things
and make it unique. However, I do use pinterest for building story boards.
What do you like to do when
you're not writing?
When I'm not writing I'm always spending time with my
family.
What does your family think
of your writing?
My family is very supportive of my writing. Not all of them
read it because the type of book it is, but they're all encouraging.
What was one of the most
surprising things you learned in creating your book Darling Dark?
When
I first started writing Darling Dark, I wasn't sure where I was going to take
it. One of the surprising things to me about this story was how easily it came
to me. 
Sarcastic- sometimes a tad vulgar, wife, mother, and always willing to be a friend. She knew she wanted to be a writer ever since taking the writing portion of the OAT test in elementary school. Steven Pressfield's-War of Art, and Teresa Deny's-The Silver Devil, played a big role in her start to writing. Natalie loves all dark reads. Everything from romantic suspense, to erotic horror.
Her own stories tend to push the boundaries of what is deemed acceptable. She writes things not everyone will find appealing or care for, and that's okay with her because not everyone likes the same things. Her debut book is Darling Dark, it is the first book in her Infernal Regions series.
When she's not writing or procrastinating, she spends her time with her family
