For the curious minds...

When did you start writing?
It was a normal day back in 2012 when I walked in my front door with an armload of books and my husband told me he was pretty sure the library was going to run out of books and why don't I write my own? I laughed it off, but not long after I had another one of my vivid-in color-dreams and woke up with an entire story in my head.So I started writing it...in a 5 Star notebook.

Would you recommend writing a book on paper?
No.

When did you find your agent?
That first book I'd written, AWAKENING THE BLADES, ended up being a finalist for the RWA® Golden Heart®which was a national writing award for pre-published authors. I attended the national conference and was introduced to Agent Sarah by the fabulous Jeffe Kennedy!

Why write as A.C. Anderson and Alexia Chantel?
 Sci-fi thrillers sell better with masculine names or initials as the author. And it's handy to separate the sci-fi and fantasy since readers want to know what they're picking up.
Where can I find you online?
​Every Thursday I blog at the SFF Seven website. We're seven science fiction and/or fantasy authors who write about writerly stuff...and food, and what's going on, and books, and pretty much everything.
One of the triggers for chronic diseases is stress.
Stress = Bad
So I don't spend a lot of time on the socials, but if you're looking for me I'm most likely on
Instagram.
