Interview with author ERIN NOELLE




Please tell my readers a little bit about your book. 
Metamorphosis is the story of Scarlett, a college-bound freshman looking to make up for lost time of experiencing life by her over-controlling parents, and her transformation from a young, naive girl to a strong, mature young woman and her search for self-discovery and true love.

Describe the genre of this particular title, and is the only genre you write in? 
Metamorphosis falls in the Mature New Adult / Contemporary Romance genre. This is the first book I have written and I expect my subsequent novels will be in the same genre.

When did you start writing toward publication? 
I began writing Metamorphosis mid-October 2012 and self-published on January 19, 2013.

Did you have several manuscripts finished before you sold? If so, did you send them out yourself?
No, this was my first novel and I self-published.

What is your writing routine like?
During the day I work outside the home and then I spend my evenings with my husband and two small children, so I am limited to writing late at night. Typically, I write from around 10:00PM until 12:00AM-1:00AM. All of my writing is done in the comfort of my bed and I have to be listening to music that pertains to the scene I am writing.

What sort of promo do you do? Do you have help?   
I didn’t know much about the world of book promotions until recently, after publishing Metamorphosis. I have since scheduled a blog tour coming up from March 4th through March 15th that will feature the book on 15 different book review blogs. In addition, I will be a part of the Naughty Mafia Rocks Vegas book signing event @ The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Las Vegas on August 16-20.

 Are you a member of any writing organizations and, if so, have they helped?
I’ve just recently joined several writers groups on Facebook and they have been very helpful as far as marketing ideas and contacts.

What’s next for you?
I am currently working on Ambrosia, the sequel to Metamorphosis, and anticipate that there will be at least one more, if not two, in the Book Boyfriend Series.

BOOK BLURB
Scarlett MacGregor has lived a very sheltered life courtesy of her over-the-top controlling parents. Having never been to a co-ed party, much less on a date, Scarlett has relied on her books, her music, and living vicariously through her best friend Evie to keep her sanity as she's patiently awaited her freedom from their rule.
During their first semester away at college, Scarlett and Evie, both avid readers of romance novels, concoct the idea of a contest to find their real-life book boyfriends. Scarlett quickly meets Ashton, Dylan, and later, Mason, and is thrown into a crash course of like, love, and lust. With Evie's help, she must figure out the difference in the three and which one she wants before she ends up without any of them.

A little bit about the author
Erin Noelle is a Texas native, where she lives with her husband and two young daughters. While earning her degree in History, she rediscovered her love for reading that was first instilled by her grandmother when she was a young child. A lover of happily-ever-afters, both historical and current, Erin is a passionate reader of all romance novels. Most nights you can find her cuddled up in bed with her husband, her Kindle in hand and a sporting event of some sorts on television. You can follow her on Facebook @ www.facebook.com/erin.noelle.98 and follow her on Twitter @enoelleauthor.
Excerpt
“Evie had devised a perfect way for me to meet different kinds of guys and the game would help me to break out of my shell, lose some of my insecurities, and do things that I would most likely be too timid to try. I’m not sure if it was the empty bottle of wine that sat in the kitchen trash, the possibility of finding the happily-ever-after I had read about time and again in my countless books, or the fact I definitely did not want to die a virgin, but I found myself saying, ‘Game on. May the best book whore win.’”
