Featured Interview With Shadress Denise
Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
I was born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri. I am the only girl of six boys and I am a huge sports fan. I love to travel and I am very adventurous. My passions are writing and graphic design. I am a true artist and love all aspects of it. I still reside in St. Louis, MO but will eventually be relocating.
At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
I’ve always loved to read. I remember getting so excited with the book mobile would come to my school. It was a chance for me to get more Berenstain Bears and Nancy Drew books. My mom loves to read so I think I got it honestly. I actually realized I loved writing in high school. I took a creative writing class and I loved it so from that point on I started writing down my thoughts and feelings.
Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
I read a lot of different authors. I love Eric Jerome Dickey, Francis Ray, Zane, Mary B. Morrison, Carl Weber and Anais Nin. I don’t really have a favorite genre because I love to read different story plots. I would have to say all of the authors I’ve named inspired me in some way. From story plots and character development I love how they have evolved over the years through their writing.

My latest book is called Who Do You Love and it’s about a girl name Rylee who is discovering who she is as a woman. She has just moved away from her mother so that she can establish her own sense of independence. In doing that she has also tapped into her newfound sexuality and the liberation within it. Unfortunately, in discovering it she has found herself in somewhat of a sticky situation with a couple of the tenants.
