Welcome C.S. Patra,
I am so excited to have you here at Just One More Romance. Thank you so much
for taking time out of your busy schedule to sit down for an interview with us.
Can you tell us a little bit about yourself?
Thank you for having me. Well, I’ve been writing for a long time and I have far too many ideas and books to write. My day job and grad school usually tend to slow me down but I still try to squeeze in some time to write. Right now, my biggest thing is trying to prioritize myself. I still don’t have that one down pat but we’ll see.

Tell us about your work.
What are you writing now?
Well, my next book
that’s going to come out is part of a series called The Reaper’s Apprentices. While the first book isn’t quite as
romantic, it’s basically setting up everything to happen in future books. This
one is where you will get to see a romance build slowly from book to book,
between man and demon. You’ll see how the main characters got to the place that
they are based on just the first book.
Where did you draw your inspiration for this story?
It’s a story idea
that’s been forming in my head for more than twenty years now. I kept thinking
about it and changing things around so many times until I was satisfied. We had
so many women falling in love with supernatural creatures that I wanted to
change this a little bit. Ladies can make quite some interesting supernatural
characters too.
When did you first realize you wanted to be a writer?
I was always
interested in writing but I didn’t get too involved with it until I turned 18.
What was the first romance novel you read that made an
impression on you?
As silly as this
will sound, it was probably one of those teen horror novels that I used to read
as a child. Despite all the murder and scary things, the romance was very
romantic to a thirteen-year old me.
What do you do while you write? Do you listen to music, watch TV, eat snacks, etc.?
I listen to my
Last.FM music. I’ve got a wide variety of songs and artists on that. Sometimes
I might put on an old show that I’ve watched and let the background noise play.
Tell us 3 surprising things about yourself.
1. I like to write outside the box sometimes,
things that most authors won’t write.
2. I like turtles.
3. I love macaroni and cheese.
What’s the last movie you watched and loved?
Last movie I did see in general was Frozen and despite a few issues I had with it, I liked it.
What’s your idea of a perfect date?
Anywhere that the two of us can have peace and quiet with
each other. No noise, no other distractions, just each other. We’d talk and
enjoy each other’s company. I know, it’s a very simple date.
If you could take a romantic trip, where would it be?
Take me all around
Asia. I really want to tour the whole continent one day or most of it.
Do you believe in love at first sight?
I think it can
happen but I prefer love that grows gradually.
Top three things on your bucket list:
1. Get a book of mine turned into a movie/TV show
2. Have a child
3. Win an Oscar/Emmy/Tony for writing (very, very
wishful thinking)
Boxers or Briefs?
Depends on the guy
but boxers usually
Alpha or Beta?
Beta with a little
Alpha in him.
Brains or Muscles?
Brains.
Planner or Wing it?
Planner for the most
part.
Favorite feel good drink?
Hot chocolate for winter, ice tea for summer.
Vanilla or chocolate?
Chocolate
Laptop or desktop?
Desktop
Beach or mountains?
Mountains
Winter or summer?
Winter
Thank you so much for taking the time to let us interview
you C.S. Patra and I look forward to having you back again on Just One More
Romance.
