Books-n-Kisses is pleased to welcome 1st time guest Khelsey Jackson to the blog.
Khelsey, can you please share with us a little about yourself
Hello! My name is Khelsey and I live in Las Vegas. I was raised in Minnesota in a very small town called Pillager. I am a stay at home mother of three kids all under four. I wrote Kallos, and it took me a year to write it.
Have you always wanted to be an author?
I think some part of me always wanted to be, I always thought of stories in my head.
Who are some of your favorite writers? Who do you feel has influenced your writing?
I will read anything from Cynthia Eden, Richelle Mead, AM Hudson and Cameo Renae.
How did you get into writing in this specific genre? Have you ever thought about writing in a different genre?
I always loved YA, it takes me back to High School and you get to usually see the main characters fall in love for the first time.
What are some of your writing rituals?
I need my MP3 player, or my kids will bug me.
Can you please tell us about your latest book(s)?
Yes! Kallos is a shy sixteen year old girl unready to face the world, but when she meets Ian and Sean Hunter the world will open up for her. Secrets revealed are to much to bear and her past life as a goddess, unimaginable. A visit from the goddess Aphrodite, Kallos is told her soul mate must be found or her life will be forfeit. Kallos desperate to find her one true match has discovered she may have two possibilities. Kallos has a choice to make and her decisions may have life ending consequences.
How did you come with the idea for this story?
In school I always loved Greek Gods and Goddesses, and thought it make a perfect story for a YA series.
Can you share with us your current work(s) in progress?
I am editing Kallos’ Sorrow (book 2) and a new series called Black & Blue.
What would you be if you were not an author?
I would just be a stay at home mother, and reading all the time.
What is in your To Read Pile that you are dying to start or upcoming release you can’t wait for?
I can’t wait for Cassandra Clare Mortal Instruments newest, and I am reading Laura Kate Rapture.
Is there anything else you would like to add?
Thank you for having me here!
