Bio:
Debbie
has always had a soft spot for fairy tales, the joy of falling in love, and
happily ever after endings. Stories of love and make believe filled her head
for as long as she can remember. However, it was her beloved husband who
encouraged, cajoled and inspired her to take up a pen and write some of them
down. Her journey to published author could fill quite a few pages. However, in
June of 2010, she submitted her debut novel “Spirit of the Rebellion” to her
wonderful, patient, editor at The Wild Rose Press and the rest is history. She
now has five published novels to her credit, with a sixth due out in the coming
year.

ancient and historic.

Welcome, Debbie. Please tell us about
your current release, Shadow of the Witte
Wieven.
Despite a contract on her head, lone Drug Enforcement Agent,
Aliyana Montijo must ferret out a mole and stop the assassination of top DEA
officials, as so ordered by the Colombian drug lord she seeks to take down. The
task is a daunting one, for there is no one she can trust. No one that is,
until she encounters a most unlikely ally.

Former seventeenth century captain of the Dutch West Indies
Company, Wolfaert Dircksen Van Ness, now from a parallel dimension, encounters
the beautiful agent during an unearthly storm in the Bermuda triangle. Drawn to
the Spanish beauty he rescues, he pledges his assistance, despite her
reluctance to accept either his help or his heart.

“Ooh! Tu’ eres el hombre más exasperante que he tenido la
desgracia de conocer!” she huffed as she folded her arms and slammed them hard against her chest.

twitched in amusement. “I

didn’t quite catch all that!”
In response to his mirth, she once again clenched her teeth. She
could feel her cheeks flame as she jerked a pointed a finger toward his chest. “I said, you
are the most exasperating man I’ve ever had the misfortune—”

The moment she drove her finger forward, her words abruptly ended
and so did his mirth.

Aliyana touched the tip of her tongue to her lips as she stared at
what she could see of her finger. She slowly withdrew it from inside his chest, gazed at the digit,
repeated her actions once more, and then gazed into his sky-blue eyes.

you think.”

She struggled to make sense of this new quandary. Her bewildered
gaze shifted to his arms

“Who are you?” she asked in a voice just audible to his ears.

What exciting story are you working on
next?
Court of the Hawk is my next release
and is currently in the pre-galley stages. This fantasy romance pairs a modern
day epigraphist with a 13th century Lord who rules an ancient Welsh
kingdom hidden from the world.
When did you first consider yourself a
writer?
I have always enjoyed writing. Yet, I don’t think I truly
considered myself a writer until I signed my first contract with The Wild Rose
Press.

Do you write full-time? If so, what’s
your work day like? If not, what do you do other than write and how do you find
time to write?
I do write full time, however my hours are never cut in stone.
Sometimes I am up at 5:00 a.m., typing away. There are also times that I am up
past midnight. When the words are flowing I write them. When they’re not, I do
the other things that need doing.

What would you say is your interesting
writing quirk?
I don’t know if it’s really a quirk, but I do have to have music
playing that matches the scenes I am writing. Most of the music I listen to is
instrumental and generally comes from various movie scores. Oh, and I also have
to have my ice-water and either cinnamon bears or hot tamales readily
available!

As a child, what did you want to be when
you grew up?
Oh, I had quite a list! I wanted to be a teacher, a nurse, and a
rodeo rider, just to name a few. I think that’s why I love writing. I give all
of my heroines a different, interesting career and then I get to live it along
with them while I write their story…
