Tell us more about your books.

Never Sleep is a YA science fiction story set in New York City. The protagonist, Thora Green, suffers from chronic months-long insomnia, and she's heard a rumor of a secret haven with a cure called the Insomniac Cafe, hidden in the streets of Manhattan. So, she takes off to follow the clues in an overnight epic adventure.

Bone Dry is a YA paranormal about a con artist shaman who tricks her classmates into being haunted. But, of course, real spirits start showing up in town, leaving behind a trail of bodies, and Holly has to get to the bottom of things before more people die. There's also a swoony comic book nerd named Nathan Whitman who helps her out.

Coffee or Tea?

Coffee all the way. Lots of it, all day every day. Along with chocolate. Best combination ever!

Plotter or Pantser?

A bit of both. I need to know where I'm going and the major steps along the way, so I write out an outline before I start working on the story. But I like to leave some room for surprises, because my mind always comes up with cool ideas as I'm typing out all the words.

Are there any books involved in the YA Spring Fling that you’re secretly lusting after?

I've been eyeing Bound in Blue for awhile, and I have The Witching Elm by C.N. Crawford on my Kindle. Can't wait to dive into that!

What are your top tips for surviving a zombie apocalypse?

You need a weapon, obviously. I think a crossbow is your best option. It gives you the distance you need, but it's not loud like a shotgun (which, as we all know, gets the zombies coming). Also, it's very important to get to a secluded location. I'd head straight for a ship and make sure I had the supplies for fishing. I'm a vegetarian, but when the zombie apocalypse comes, I'll have to survive on sea creatures.
