Any author(s) that you feel influenced your writing?

CL: I love Danielle Santiago, Keisha Ervin, Takerra Allen, and Tracy Brown have all had a huge influence in my writing. Especially Danielle.

CL: Hmm... that’s a hard one. The one person that comes to mind is Dominique Thomas. I would have to think of the others.

What are your top 3 favorite books of all time?

CL: Torn Keisha Ervin, G Spot Noire, Heaven’s Hell Takerra Allen.

How do you research for your books?

CL: Google and YouTube has saved my writing life ☺️

What is your work schedule like when you're writing?
