Author spotlight: MJ Scott

In the lead-up to ARR2023 in February 2023 we will be spotlighting the authors who will be signing. In the spotlight today we have MJ Scott. MJ will be signing in Melbourne.

Who was the first romance author to catch your interest?

I read category romances in my teens. When I came back to romance as an adult, Jenny Crusie.

What do you write?

Romantic fantasy and urban fantasy

Which usually comes to you first—characters or plot (or something else)?

Usually the characters, the plot comes as I write. Sometimes an idea for a situation.

Choose one of your books to turn into a movie—who would you cast in the lead roles?

The Exile’s Curse. I think Jude Law (if he was still a bit younger) would make a good Lucien. But if not him, Chris Hemsworth in his less Thor’d up mode.
