So without further ado, here's my interview with the amazing Kylie Scott...
What has been your best and worst experience as a
published author?
My best experience would have to be finally seeing
my work get published. That was amazing. Worst is always going to be having
someone slice and dicing one of my stories. A bad review sucks but it’s all
part of the process.
When you’ve completed
a book do you breathe a sigh of relief, or do you feel sad the experience has
ended?
You know, usually it is a sigh of relief. I love
working on a story, but there’s always a shiny new bright idea ready to be
chased down once another is finished. Not that I don’t have fond memories of all
my old fictional boyfriends. Ah, Daniel, Finn, Adam, Nick and Angus. I love
them all really.
What do you believe
are your strengths and weaknesses as a writer?
Ooh, okay. I think my
strengths lie in the fields of humour and smut. My main weakness is probably
emotion. Or, at least, that is the area I feel I have to consciously work at
the most. There was a lot of layering involved to put the necessary angst into
this story.
The Stage
Dive series is about rock stars and the Flesh series is about zombies – how do
you come up with your story ideas?
What I love about romance is the ability to move
between sub-genres. People fall in love all over the place in every kind of
situation. Whether it be with a werewolf on a beach or a space marine at the
outer edge of the galaxy, it’s a beautiful thing. I have no idea where the
different story ideas come from. We can probably just blame them on my
over-active imagination.
If you had to go back and write it all over again, is
there any aspect of LICK that you would change?
I’d plot more. I started out
a pantser, but I’m finding with each book, plotting becomes more and more
important.
Who are your ‘must read’ authors and what books would
we find on your bookshelves/e-reader?
On my ereader … I’ve been going through a Kristen
Ashley phase which has been fun. Love the big burly Alphas she’s got going on.
Same with “Reaper’s Property” by Joanna Wylde and “Real” by Katy Evans. Horse
and Remy, RAWR.
Is there
one person - living or dead - that you would absolutely love to meet, and why?
Stephen King. I think he is amazing.
I find
all your sex scenes to be very (hot) realistic, mutually satisfying, and respectful
- especially the M/M/F sexploits in Flesh - what kind of research or preparation
do you do (if any) before writing sexy scenes? *waggles eyebrows*
Haha, let’s put that one down to the over-active
imagination again. My mind disgusts me.
What are your biggest
sexual turn-ons and turn-offs, in the opposite sex?
I think one of the biggest sexual turn-ons is being
with someone who is genuinely 110% into you. Sex can be mighty exposing, so you
have to be able to trust them enough to let your guard down and have some fun.
The biggest turn-off would be someone who was selfish and had no taste for the
job to hand. Kick ‘em out of bed, ladies.
If your
husband was to give you a (theoretical) ‘free pass’ who would you use it for?
This week … let’s go with Chris Hemsworth with long
blond hair. Yum.
Thank you so much
for answering my questions Kylie, and for being a good sport on the slightly risqué ones ;P

Waking up in Vegas was
never meant to be like this.
Evelyn Thomas’s plans
for celebrating her twenty-first birthday in Las Vegas were big. Huge. But she
sure as hell never meant to wake up on the bathroom floor with a hangover to
rival the black plague, a very attractive half-naked tattooed man, and a
diamond on her finger large enough to scare King Kong. Now if she could just
remember how it all happened.
