CRIMINALLY GOOD: interview with author Karen M. Bryson

1) So, who are you & what have you written?

I write contemporary romance and romantic crime fiction.
I’ve written over 40 romance novels, three of those (ONLY THE PRETTY ONES, THE NINES and BEHIND BLUE EYES) are dark romantic crime fiction stories.

2) Why do you write crime fiction?

I have a fascination with vigilante justice stories. I particularly
enjoy writing stories in which females are anti-heroes.

3) What informs your crime writing?

I love watching vigilante justice movies and reading vigilante justice novels. I’m particularly inspired by stories with strong female protagonists like Lisbeth Salander (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.)

4) What’s your usual writing routine?

I write every morning, starting at about 5 am. I like to write for several hours before starting my full-time job as a university professor.

5) Which crime book do you wish YOU’D written, and why?

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Lisbeth Salander is such a strong and memorable character.
