Featured Interview With Candace Nicole Werts
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
My name is Candace Nicole Werts. I am an author with a passion in writing Erotica Romance for the entertainment of the adult community. Becoming an author has always been a dream of mine and it became reality with the creation of The Made Series.
Due to the lack of books that feature interracial couples, it was exciting to write a series starring multicultural characters. These stories contain fashion, friendship, love, and the finest things that life can offer. The Made Series focuses on three best friends and the trials they face once love enters their lives.
My first book, Made to Love, features the enchanting Carmen and dashing Cooper. The book was released on April 26, 2014.
I was born in Newark, New Jersey but spent majority of my life living in the metro Richmond, VA. I am a wife, mother and business owner.
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
At a young age, I was introduced to the wonderful world of reading by my parents. The older I began the more I loved reading, soon I was reading different books weekly.
I have been writing professionally since October 2013. My first book, Made to Love, was released on April 26, 2014, was written in less two months. Yes, I spent all of my free time writing.
Made to Love came to me in a dream, the characters came to life and the events unfolded. I created a detailed bio on every character and the description of their surroundings. There is no particular sequence I use while writing. The book was created from the middle and ending scenes and then I wrote around it. There are several dreams that take place to help me bring the scenes together. With so many ideas popping into my heads, I never go anywhere without a notebook and pen. I use multiple images, my dreams including imagination and some real life experiences to help build the story and the characters.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
I do not have any favorite authors, I take my hat off to anyone who has taken the time to write a book. The books I tend to read are romance, erotica, suspense, fantasy, and horror (vampires).
Tell us a little about your latest book?
In Made to Love, the main characters are Carmen Williams and Cooper Jackson. Carmen is a successful business owner who is young and beautiful. Carmen lives in Arlington, VA. Her life should be perfect, but every day she faces guilt due to the murder of her younger sister. This tragic event has controlled her love life.
Cooper Jackson is every woman’s fantasy, tall, dark and handsome. An event from his childhood, which he never discusses, has prevented him from wanting to love anyone, until he meets Carmen Williams. Even though his heart says yes he still pushes her away.
