What is it about Unorthodox that makes it so special?






Special Note to YOU - Hello everyone: ) Thanks so much for stopping in and checking out the BWL Publishing Inc. author blog posts. I have a great appreciation for you, your time and support, and so does BWL Publishing Inc. and all of the authors here; )

~ Happy Halloween!! ~


Now on to the post; )

A couple weeks ago I was on a book blog tour for my newest release, Unorthodox, A Kendra Spark Novel. One of the blog hosts asked me, “What is it about Unorthodox that makes it so special?” Hmmm, after some reflective thought, here’s my “why” it’s so special to me:

Genre Mixture – Paranormal, suspense-thriller, romance, crime, mystery, plus supernatural. These genres are what I read, but this is the first book I’ve written that includes all of them. The opportunities for expanding on any of those genres within this series is endless: )

Characters – I wanted diversity, a blending of people that normally wouldn’t connect well to one another. I threw them together in a tension-filled life/death situation where each must play their precise role in combination with the others to restore balance and defeat evil. In other words, I wanted impossible relationships for the “foundation” first book in the series, story-stars with the ability to grow and evolve throughout the series, including their relationships.

Paranormal – Ghosts and Kendra’s ability to communicate with them rendered a specific “special,” like opening the door to a whole ghost world through Jenna.

Supernatural – Playtime! *grins* With a writer’s license to bring forth oddities/entities into present day situations, I couldn’t resist getting wild and crazy with it. So fun to brainstorm and write.

Romance – In this first book, a couple budding romantic connections took place (the tensions deepen in this book), leaving a lot of room for a blazing inferno in the next books.

Research – I enjoyed the time spent on accumulating information on forensics, FBI and Police procedures, settings/locations, and criminal analysts, through on-line courses, books, on-line search engines and specific sites, Sisters in Crime Organization, and workshops. This area of research was a first for me; )

All of these elements add into the specialness I feel for Unorthodox, and I hope you enjoy the story and the series future possibilities.

S. Peters-Davis writes multi-genre stories, but loves penning a good page-turning suspense-thriller, especially when it’s a ghost story and a romance. When she’s not writing, editing, or reading, she’s hiking, RV’ing, fishing, playing with grandchildren, or enjoying time with her favorite muse (her husband) in Southwest Michigan.
She also writes YA paranormal, supernatural novels as DK Davis
