Interview with Bodie Summers, Author of The Cursed Dragon

What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write The Cursed Dragon?

With my love for fantasy romance books and the tales of Ares and Aphrodite, it was the best combination I could think of. I love how the book turned out and how we got out first glimpse into this world.

What’s your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?

My favorite genre to read is dark fantasy romance and yes, it’s also my favorite to write. But when I finish a fantasy book, I like to write contemporary romance stories to clear my head before I jump into the next fantasy world.

What books are on your TBR pile right now?

I just finished Moon Touched and Star Cursed is my next read!

What scene in your book was your favorite to write?

That’s a good one and hard to answer without spoiling anything, but I’ll try. My favorite scene is a moment in the book where the MMC finally realizes what he’s about to lose. He’s such a stubborn man and this moment is where he finally stops hiding his feelings and opens up.

Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)

I write at the dining table and I always need to have my feet on the chair across from me. I never realized this until the chair was moved and I kept trying and I couldn’t find the right position, so yeah, I think that’s my quirk.

Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?

I don’t think I do, but there’s one thought that always stick by me when I create a new fantasy world and that’s to write for myself. I know there are a lot of tips and tricks to write what sells, but my love for fantasy takes over in that department and I truly write what I want to write even if that means my stories are different from the others, have different rules for example or twists that we don’t usually see in the theme’s I have in my books.

If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?

Follow your own instincts, your heart, as Rodi did.
