Interview with the Author Abby Greenwood Q: why do you write free shape novels when others are charging for theirs? A: I am a self publishing author so I don't have the marketing power of other authors who write shape novels and also have big publishing companies to promote their books. I give my shape shifter novels away for free so readers can evaluate my stories and then decide if they want to invest in my other shapeshifter romance novels. Q: There are a lot of alpha werewolf romance stories available; do you include any in your book? A: The main character is a billionaire diamond mine owner who is the future king and high lord of the falcon clan. In this book he meets his girl but she is kidnapped by a rogue alpha werewolf so yes there are alpha werewolves in this book but you will have to read it to find out what happens. Q: This is your first book in the paranormal shape shifter genre, will you be releasing shifter romance box sets or bundle? A: I already have book two published (Heart Of The Hunter) and I am half way through the third book (Heart of the Heiress) so once the third book is finished I will be releasing my shifter romance box sets/bundle. Q: So, why should readers give your free shapeshifter romantic short story books a try? A: When I was a child living in England I used to watch the old British Hammer House Of Horror movies about werewolf’s and vampires, they frightened the life out of me. As I got older I started to read more of these shape shifter romance books, I liked them so much I put pen to paper and wrote my very first with a little mystery and suspense thrown in. If you like paranormal fiction with a little romance thrown in you will love my free shapeshifter novels.
