Getting to Know Victoria Wells

Have you always wanted to be a writer?

No, I can’t say that I’ve always wanted to be a writer. However, I’ve always had a love affair with books. I’ve been an avid reader since childhood.

Do you remember the very first story you ever wrote? What age were you when you wrote it? Was it romance even then?

Yes! I do remember the first story I wrote. I was seven years old and in the second grade. It was a story about farm animals. I even made my own book cover with construction paper and bounded the pages together with yarn. It wasn’t a romance, but I was very proud of it.
How much of your own personal life is reflected in your writing?
Not too much. The only thing that’s reflective of my personal life is that the heroines of my novels are nurses.

What is your favorite part of the writing process?

I love developing characters and figuring out where I’m going with the story. I especially enjoy when the characters boss me around and tell me how they want their stories written.

What is the hardest part of writing for you?
Finding the time. My life is so busy with working fulltime, raising a family and doing community work from time to time that I find it difficult sometimes to write. I’m not even going to get into all the work and time it takes to promote a book once it’s released. Time I could be writing.

What is the one story you want to write, but haven’t? What obstacles are keeping you from writing it?

Since I love Beverly Jenkins’s historical romance books I would love to write one of my own. However, all the research I would have to do in order to make the book realistic is holding back. LOL
