Q&A

1-How long have you been writing?
Since elementary school. I've always loved creating stories.

2-Are you the photographer?
No. There are many Jennifer Clouds. I've done a search and found nurses, lawyers, students, and a few amateur porn models. I am not associated with any of them.

3-Which of your books is your favorite?
Usually it's whatever I'm working on at the time.

4-Do you have any new books coming out?
Yes. I will post the information as soon as I get a release date.

5-Who are your favorite authors?
I have so many it's hard to choose but Stephen King, F. Paul Wilson, Sandra Brown, Jim Butcher, and Douglas Preston are a few of the print authors I adore.


6-Will you read my novel?
I can't read unpublished work for legal reasons.

7-Do you have readers that help critique your work?
Yes, my husband reads everything. There are times when I ask other people to read something, especially when I know it's in a genre they enjoy.

8-How many hours a day do you write?
As many as possible. I try to write between 1000-2000 words a day. When a story is flowing, I can get more done, edits mean less. My schedule depends on my family.


9-I've noticed several of your books going out of print. What's going on?
I have removed several of my older titles. I have my reasons for doing this. I'll give more information later.


Thank you for your interest and support.
