I have always found psychics interesting, and reading about them led me to other supernatural topics like ghosts. I’m not a fan of monster-lit (although I did enjoy Twilight) but I do love mysteries, and the mysteries about what is on the “Otherside” fascinate me. After reading psychic biographies and meeting with psychics, I based Sabine on real psychics, so that the abilities she has are more spiritual than supernatural. Of course, in my DEAD GIRL series, it’s all creative fun with Dark-Lifers stealing bodies and my heroine Amber accidentally jumping into other bodies. There’s romance, too, which adds to the fun.
Have you ever had a supernatural encounter?
I wish I could tell you I’d seen a ghost or something spooky. But the most I can say is that I get really strong feelings sometimes, warning me not to go somewhere or to avoid people, and I’ve learned to listen, believing there’s a good chance it’s a spirit guide trying to protect me. I have had some dreams which felt real and where I’d see my grandmother (who died 30 years ago) and when I hugged her in the dream it felt real, so I’d wake up and wonder if it was.

It's fun to learn what influences writers. I would never have thought of psychics. I would have thought ghosts.

While I don't remember when I was first intrigued by psychics, I do know that whenever mysteries I read like Trixie Beldon, Nancy Drew or Judy Bolton mentioned psychics I was really intrigued.
Good luck to everyone who gets the clues for the Crossroads Tour!
I like hearing about supernatural encounters other people have had. It makes me feel like I'm not losing my mind all the time. Loved your two questions!
Oh, yay! I love Linda Joy! :D
I have her latest book waiting to get to me from the library and I'm waiting anxiously.
