N. N. Light’s Book Heaven is celebrating its tenth anniversary. Isn’t that wonderful?
Yes, it is! Congrats!
I’d like to introduce you to prolific romance and cozy mystery author Meg Benjamin.
Question 1: Where were you ten years ago in relation to your author/writer career? If you weren’t writing, what were you doing?
I was still working on my Konigsburg, Texas, series with Samhain Publishing. The last book in the series, Hungry Heart, came out in 2014. And in 2015 I started publishing my Salt Box, Colorado, Trilogy with Finding Mr. Right Now. The trilogy represented the last books I did with Samhain before they went out of business (sigh—they’re missed). These books are all with Entangled now, and I’ve since published three more Konigsburg books on my own.
Question 2: Looking back on the past ten years, how has your writing grown?
When I started publishing fiction in 2009, I was strictly a contemporary romance writer. But over the years I’ve branched out into paranormal (the Ramos Family Trilogy for Berkley Intermix and my indie Folk Trilogy) and cozy mysteries (the Luscious Delights series for Wild Rose). I’d say my horizons have widened, and doing some indie publishing on my own has given me more ways to bring my work to readers.
Question 3: What are you doing now? How many books have you published?
Right now I’m working on my Luscious Delights series for Wild Rose, but I’m also interested in publishing more cozies. And I have some sequels to the Folk trilogy that I’m anxious to get out there, as well as another Konigsburg (well, Konigsburg adjacent) book. Since 2009 when I started, I’ve published 27 novels.
