In the world of my novel, SILVER KISS, werewolves and humans are separate species living alongside each other. But even though my werewolves never started out as human, they still have some very human habits, and hobbies. One of my characters, Vince, is a fan of unusual beers, for example, and spends a lot of time forcing everything from banana beer to chocolate beer on his friends.

Another werewolf, Glenn, spends his nights dressed up as Gloriana and belting out classic jazz and swing numbers in the local gay club. My heroine, Ayla, has a weakness for pulpy novels about demons and vampires, and would secretly love to believe such creatures really exist. And of course, all my werewolves appreciate a good hunt through one of the parks and gardens around the city, preferably followed by a nice, juicy steak.

My werewolves like good restaurants and family dinners, need hospitals and police stations, just like the humans they live with. After all, you can’t spend all your time running around on all fours, can you? And hey – werewolves need hobbies beyond chasing rabbits and deer around, right? Particularly one of my werewolves – Joel. Joel has a pretty unusual phobia for a werewolf. But you’ll learn about that in SILVER KISS…

Or if you’ve already got a theory, I’ve got a great contest for you. There’s an ebook for a winner at the end of today and everyone who enters now will also be in the running for winning a signed print copy of SILVER KISS drawn at the end of the week.

Just answer this simple question in your comment to be entered into both competitions:

What do you think Joel’s phobia is?
