Interview with Charae Lewis


Where did you get your love of books/storytelling/reading/writing/etc come from?
CL: My best friend brought Zane’s Addicted to school one day in high school. I read it and loved it. From there, I fell in love with urban fiction and found myself reading any book that came from the genre.
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.
Name 3 authors you'd like to collaborate with?
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?
CL: I love writing during the day, so I can have my evenings to myself. Surprisingly, my words do not flow at night 🥴
