When I was coming up with my list of authors that I wanted to interview and share my admiration of, her name was at the top of my list. The avid reader that I am nearly combusted when I held one of the books to her Savannah Coven series.

The woman is one of the first authors to gift me one of her books. It doesn’t matter how many times I contact her for swag (something I’ll be soon bugging her for more of) or just to say “hello” she responds. Suza Kates … Suza FREAKING Kates! What can I say about her? She is one of the first bigger named authors that took a moment to respond to an email for this little known individual.
