SJ: The big reason for the change was the idea for THE EMPRESS came to me and it was totally irresistible.

+ How did The Diabolic transition from being a stand alone novel to now a trilogy? Were there any aspects of The Diabolic that you wished you could go back and adjust once you began writing The Empress? Think the Roman Empire at its decadent phase… In outer space. It’s actually a girl with superhuman strength, thrown into a world of diabolical aristocrats where she must hone the weapons of wit instead.

Although my previous trilogy, INSIGNIA, did have cyborgs, Nemesis is very much a person. SJ: A lot of people go into the story thinking it’s a bit of a superhero tale or the story of a cyborg in space. + What is something that readers can expect from The Diabolic series that they wouldn't gather after reading the summaries?
