VK Tritschler
Hello and welcome. Our readers are looking forward to learning more about you. I am an author who revels in immagination and intrigue. My books are focused on adventure and mystery, hung together with a good romance. Currently, I am living in the beautiful green hills of Victoria, Australia having relocated from South Australia, and New Zealand previously. Here I find inspiration in nature and the world around me.
I have a wonderful set of amazing local writers who support me from around the country which is very special. I have been actively writing for several years, and I love to hear from my readers as they engage with my characters. So feel free to reach out!
When did you first start writing? What made you want to be a writer?
I have always written, even as a child when I wrote a note for the front door warning people not to enter because my mother was in a bad mood. But serious consideration of becoming an author coincided with my move to Australia in 2015, when I joined Eyre Writers group and began to learn new skills and connections. They gave me the confidence to keep going.
What inspired you to write your book?
My most popular series, the Nowhere Pack, was inspired by the concept of panthers roaming in Australia which is local folk-lore. I loved the idea that instead of werewolves, Australians had werepanthers. Where people who changed into animals were present, and had somehow kept that myth alive.
Are you a pantser or a plotter?
Always a pantser. I have tried plotting but I find my story trailing off in a different direction always. And anyway, it means that often the plots surprise even me, which is a wonderful way to write (and read!).
Do you have any writing rituals or special processes you complete before sitting down to write?
Not entirely, but my best work is done when I am focusing and normally working alongside other authors. There is something about the shared muse that just gets my brain jumping!
If you could only write in one genre for the rest of your career, what genre would you choose? Why?
Romance. Its about relationships, not just love. And within that there are so many sub-genres that you can play in spaces endlessly.
Which of the characters in your current release is your favorite? Why?
I actually killed off one of my favorite characters in my last book (don’t worry I was very sad about it). But I have an idea for another one. I am planning on giving him his very own book so I won’t give too much away, but lets just say, he has some healing and growing to do.
What music was on your playlist while writing your novel?
An eclectic mix of classical, rock and occasionally pop. Depending on my mood on the day. But I do find that classical, gets me thinking in ways that the others often can’t.
Morning person or grumpy bear?
I am a coffee starts my day person. Anything can be tackled after caffeine.
Tell us one thing it would surprise us to know about you?
I hate spiders. In fact most things with more than four legs give me the ick. You will not find me writing a spider romance novel.
What is next for you?
I have many books, ideas and thoughts underway. So this year I hope to be able to bring my readers some of those new concepts. After all, what is an author but a sharer of ideas?
If I were to look in your closet right now, would I find frills and lace or denim and tees?
Denim and tees. In fact I turned up at an event the other month in a dress and someone jokingly asked who I was. I am trying to get more frilly, but I am by nature I think, a practical gal.

Blurb:
Her Grandfather took her father’s life, and now Jess wants revenge.
Heir to a multi-verse kingdom Jess should be the most powerful woman in the world, able to keep her loved ones safe and bring peace to the realms. But with her newfound powers, came newfound dangers.
Jess is determined to protect the people she loves. To keep her sister, mother and boyfriend Peter safe, she sends them away, where her enemies can’t find them. When, Peter’s parents find out she’s the offspring of their mortal enemy, they are determined to keep them apart forever.
Going alone is perilous, and it’s hard to tell the difference between friend and foe. Determined to bring down her maniacal Grandfather, Jess is just beginning to realize the depth of her ties to those around her and the strength they bring to her.
Will she become the great protector or is she more like her Grandfather than she wants to admit?
EXCERPT
She looked up at him. His blue eyes were like darkened pools, and she felt her body involuntarily reach out to him. As their lips joined, the room swept away, the tingle of their melting creating a warmth in her veins. He was the first to pull away, reaching out to tidy a piece of hair behind her ear.
“You’re still beautiful, even as a guard,” he murmured, reaching out and giving her lips another touch with his own.
“I’ve missed you.” She curled into his chest, placing her head there to hear the solid thump of his heart.
“I’ve missed you too.” His chest rumbled with the rise and fall of his voice. “So what’s the plan? I met Stauren, and he gave me the basics, but what do you want to do here?”
She pulled herself free from his embrace and looked up at him. There were small lines at the corners of his mouth, and more lines drawing tight at his brow. He was right; they were in danger. This was not the time to enjoy each other’s company. As least, not yet.
