De La Cruz Quadruplets! Interview with De La Cruz author P.T. Macias!














Thank you for the invite. It’s a pleasure to be visiting you and sharing my De La Cruz Saga. The De La Cruz Saga is an amazing emotional roller coaster ride of romance, suspense, and intense passion. Its steamy material is a little erotic. The stories are well written, full of Mexican traditions, and culture. Enjoy their explosively passionate nature. The saga is a twelve book series. I have five out and four more should be out by the end of August 2013.

De La Cruz Saga contains Spanish. Saga has a subtle influence of Spanish and the Spanish becomes more laced (as the story progresses). I write in the present tense because I believe it puts the reader "IN" the action, rather than as part of an "after thought". I believe it brings the characters to life! My writing is not traditional literature. It does not have the fluff (excessive description, stage, settings, prose). My intent is to have the reader visualize and feel the characters story. This is my voice, my style. Dare to read the awesome De La Cruz Saga that’s full of passion and suspense. 

A hot-blooded saga of the De La Cruz familia and their fortunes is centered on romance, pasión, and danger. Enjoy their explosively passionate nature.

***WARNING De La Cruz Saga contains Spanish. Saga has a subtle Spanish influence and becomes more laced.***

EXCERPT:
 “She’s hot, sexy, and makes me burn like no one ever has. I just can’t be with her. She’s a spoiled demanding chica and I will not be her toy!” Sebastian Antonio De La Cruz Small Taste ~ “Hola I’m Cynthia. Do you work here? Is your boss here? I need to talk to him. Can you go and look for him?” asks Cynthia. She looks at Tony. I wonder if he knows where the architect is at. “Yeah, he’s here,” replies Tony. I wonder who this chica is. She’s pushy and demanding. I don’t like it, thinks Tony, attempting to calm down his body reaction to her nearness. “Okay, so where is he?” asks Cynthia. She looks around trying to find the architect that her Papa wants her to meet with. “What do you want with him?” asks Tony with curiosity. I wonder what she wants with me. “I need to make sure that he designs the building exactly as we want the building to be built. I want him to review the land and get his thoughts on buildings,” replies Cynthia with a commanding voice. Huh, hell no, I’m not taking her bullshit, thinks Tony annoyed. He looks at her from tip of her boots to the top of her glorious hair. Hell yeah, she makes me burn but she also makes me furious. Who in the hell does she think she is. She’s very condescending. “Okay, let’s start this over,” says Tony taking a firm stance. “I’m Sebastian Antonio De La Cruz and you are?” he asks. He glares at her raising his eyebrow. He raised it with arrogance. Cynthia stands there with her mouth gaping open. Wow! This hot hunk is the architect. I thought he was a worker and that the architect was an old fart, thinks Cynthia. I like him, ponders Cynthia, going to him, running her finger over his lower lip, and biting her lip. Oh yeah, I will taste him. I bet he makes love like being in heaven. I want him. I’m going to have him. She smiles gazing into his beautiful hazel eyes. “I’m Cynthia Lopez, your boss,” replies Cynthia, taking a step closer to give him a beso. She goes up onto her toes, pulls him down, giving him a hot, hungry beso. Si, he tastes scrumptious, thinks Cynthia, nibbling at his lower lip. She takes Tony by surprise. He responds to her beso with red hot hunger. He wraps his arms around her small waist, pulling her closer. He tastes her with extreme pleasure. He moans, enjoying her taste. Damn yes, she tastes divine, he thinks. He then realizes what she had said and furiously pulls back glaring at her. “Look niña, I’m not your toy and you’re not my boss,” replies Tony. Tony’s intense anger blazes in his hazel eyes, turning them greener. He attempts to control his body’s reaction to her. Dios mio, she has me all worked up with just one beso. I have never felt this strong pasión before with any other chica, ponders Tony, clenching his jaw. He steps back taking deep breaths, trying to control his anger, and his pasión. He turns to contemplate her surprised face. I need to be professional and polite to this chica. She is the customer, thinks Tony. “So you’re Señor Lopez’s hija? Where is Señor Lopez? He requested that we meet to go over the plot and some building designs prior to completing the purchase transaction,” says Tony, taking control of his feelings. “He’s late.” “My padre is late because his meeting is longer than he thought. He asked me to review everything with you,” replies Cynthia, taking a step closer to him. She faces him, almost touching. I see that he’s a real macho Mexicano and that he didn't like me being aggressive.

Wow, what’s going on? What’s all that commotion here in my casa, thinks Claudia.
She runs out of her room and down the hall. She meets her Padres (parents).
“What’s going on?” asks Claudia.
“We don’t know,” replies Papa Jorge.
Claudia urgently strides to the front door. She sees Veronica and Christopher walking after Roberto.
Oh dios mio that’s my Roberto! “Roberto, wait!” yells Claudia. She runs out the door after him. “Baby!”
“I don’t want to hear you lie!” yells Roberto. He attempts to hurry to the suv.

~Most of my favorite authors are indie or self-pubbed, what made me you decide to go that route?

The biggest factor in my decision to go Indie is that I want full control of my work. I never attempted to send in submissions to any agents. I decided that I wanted to keep the rights to my work. 

~What was one of the most surprising things you learned in creating your books?
The most surprising things that I learned in creating my books is the fact that I can write. The characters monitor the story.

~Which of your characters are you most like? Least like?
Lol, well I feel that I’m like Patricia De La Cruz and a little of Isabella. I’m the least like Erica De La Cruz. 

~Do you have a particular writing habit?
Not really. I write and write when Have the story flowing out. Then I edit and send it to my awesome editor Marsha.

~If you had to choose, which writer would you consider a mentor?
I really don’t have a favorite writer, but it would be Sherrilyn Kenyon. I love her stories.

~Are there any new authors that have grasped your interest?
Oh yeah, there are several authors that I’m anxious to read their stories. When I have time I will. I have a long to read list, lol. 

~What is the hardest part of your writing?
De La Cruz Saga contains Spanish. It has a subtle influence of Spanish and the Spanish becomes more laced (as the story progresses). I write in the present tense because I believe it puts the reader "IN “the action, rather than as part of an "after thought". Believe it brings the characters to life! My writing is not traditional literature. It does not have the fluff (excessive description, stage, settings, prose). My intent is to have the reader visualize and feel the characters story. This is my voice, my style. Dare to read the awesome De La Cruz Saga that’s full of passion and suspense.

~Do you have any advice for other writers?
Write what you feel, believe, and listen to your voice. You will never please everyone.

~Describe yourself in three words.
Dedicated, Authentic, Traditional

~I know characters are like children but if you could chose, who’s your favorite from your books? Of all time?
Yes all of them are my babies. 

~Any song or songs that could basically sum up the overall mood of your writing?
No I don’t listen to music when I write. If I have to pick one, it would be romantic and country music. 

~Do you plot out your books or just freely write them and let the characters tell you what to do next?
That’s exactly what happens. The characters direct their story and the scenes evolve as I type.  

~If you had to choose, which writer would you consider the biggest influence in your writing?
Well, I don’t have one, really I don’t. I write based on what I feel, what I see in my mind, and the characters direction. I also write what I always wanted to see in the stories I read. 

What are your current projects? Can you share a little of your current work with us?
Yes, I can with pleasure. I’m working on finishing up the De La Cruz Saga. I’m currently working on Hot & Sassy. My goal is to complete the De La Cruz Saga by the end of this year. I have Hot Angel, Hot & Sexy, Hot & Lovable, and Hot & Naughty to complete. I’m also starting to write the first book in the Razer 8 series. Razer 8 is about the eight Delta Force Operators. These stories will have romance, action, and suspense. The Razer 8 series will not be in Spanglish.

Thank you, Patricia, for sitting down and chatting with me. I feel like I know you a little bit better now!!
