WHO AM I?
My name's Kiersten. I'm a book lover, first and foremost, and an author. I currently have five published novels--all various subgenres of suspense. I live in a tiny town in Illinois and when I'm not writing I can be found with my husband Michael, our daughter, and our semi-human Boston Terrier. I'm a coffee and Netflix addict and Shonda Rhimes superfan. You can find me on Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, Instagram, or you can just follow my blog to see what I'm up to lately.
Favorite Books?
Harry Potter. Gone Girl. The Girl on the Train. Speak. The Silent Wife. Carolina Moon. A Necessary End. Anything by Jodi Picoult (literally ANYTHING. The woman is flawless). The Hunger Games. The Truth About Forever. Love the One You're With. Before I Go To Sleep. The Five People You Meet In Heaven. Wreckage. Flowers in the Attic. Into the Darkest Corner. Hidden. Sleep Tight. The Dead Key. Tuesday's with Morrie. Dark Places. Sharp Objects. The Husband's Secret.
.....
Just, you know, to name a few.
Have a favorite book? Recommend it to me! I love finding new stories to read!
If you could work with any author who would it be?
This is a hard one, because I already have so many great author friends and because there are so many authors out there I would love to meet. I have to say JK Rowling, though. She was my favorite author as a child and her work inspires me so much.
Did you always know that you wanted to write?
YES. There's a quote that says: a true writer doesn't always want to write, they need to write. That's me. I've been writing for as long as I can remember. Seriously. Poems, short stories, novels, you name it. I was that child in the back of my elementary school class that had to be told to put the pencil down and stop writing in the middle of a lesson. I didn't choose writing, it chose me.
