Common Questions

Yes, Elle Rosse is my pen name and I LOVE it! One of these days I will legally change my name to it. I created this pen name because, even though I have 3 grown kids, I still have a teenage daughter living at home. I don’t want to embarrass her by broadcasting that her mom writes steamy sexy stories. My older kiddos LOVE them though.

UPDATE: It is now part of my legal name 🙂

How long have you been writing?

All my life, but now that I am down to one kid at home, I finally have more time to devote to my writing. Well, sort of…lol. That’s why I took a year off to devote to my writing. This is how “A Dark Hell Trilogy” was born.

How long does it take you to write a book?

My shorter books, not so long. A week to two weeks, it really depends on what I have going on in my personal life. Full novels a lot longer.

What are you currently working on?

I am finishing up book 3 Hell’s Fury.

Are your stories based off of real people or your experiences?

Some of my characters might bear some resemblance to people I know, but for the most part, they are products of my overactive imagination and my story lines are purely fictional.

What is your writing ritual?

I need my laptop, my office chair and writing desk. I use my book playlists while writing.

What are your favorite pastimes?

I try to exercise regularly. I am wanting to start belly dancing. Right now my exercise of choice is walking. I love traveling and sampling each culture’s cooking as I’m an avid foodie. My very favorite pastime is probably snuggling in a blanket with a good book and a glass of wine. I also have a travel and lifestyle blog that I love to write for. (It is called SeleneEscapes.com)

Do you have any suggestions to help me become a better writer?

Just start. If writing a full novel seems daunting, write short stories first. JUST WRITE and don’t give up!!!!
