Every so often, I’ll get an idea from a dream, but most of the time, ideas come to me while I’m toiling away at the keyboard just like every other writer. – Jeaniene Frost
Vampires, werewolves, fallen angels and fairies lurk in the shadows, their intentions far from honorable. – Jeaniene Frost
The ‘Broken Destiny’ series will be a trilogy, with each book releasing about a year apart. – Jeaniene Frost
Perhaps some of the appeal of the dangerous-but-yummy paranormal anti-hero lies in his scorn for societal expectations. Yes, women have come a long way, but there are still some cultural stigmas more associated with women than men. – Jeaniene Frost
The appeal of the paranormal bad boy – or James Bond super-spy, as one example of male escapism – can sometimes make everyday problems seem less dire. Thus, a few hours spent immersed in the world of the wicked yet alluring hero is the equivalent of a mini-vacation. – Jeaniene Frost
When I started writing about vampires, I swore that I wouldn’t touch the ‘Dracula’ legend because it’s been done too many times. – Jeaniene Frost
The paranormal bad boy is usually a fiercely loyal partner for the heroine. Once his sights are set on her, he doesn’t notice other women, and he’s utterly unconcerned with what anyone else thinks of his choice. – Jeaniene Frost
I love the ‘Underworld’ movies because the vampires aren’t automatically evil, yet neither are they basically humans with fangs. – Jeaniene Frost

My parents were dismayed by my love of horror movies as a young girl, then even more dismayed when I kept rooting for Dracula to win instead of Van Helsing. – Jeaniene Frost
Similarities in the vampire genre are so rampant that there’s really no such thing as an original idea – only an original take on an idea that’s been done before. – Jeaniene Frost
One of my favorite things about supernatural fiction is its vast array of creatures. – Jeaniene Frost
