About Nita Wick
Nita lives in southern Tennessee with her husband of 20 years. They have two gifted teenagers. Their daughter, almost 19, is attending college studying to be a teacher. Their son, almost 16, is currently a sophomore in high school working to maintain his position as first in his class. She works full time at a small credit union. She runs a one-woman show at a branch office where she is the teller, vault custodian, new accounts secretary, and loan officer. With a job and family, there is not much free time, but when she’s not busy working as cook, maid, chauffeur, or financial advisor, you will find her either reading or writing. She sticks with romance novels because there absolutely, positively, must be a happily-ever-after ending!

An Interview with Nita Wick
By Katie Raines, Assistant for The Romance StudioKR: Nita, thank you for joining us at TRS. Please tell us about How Faeirie Dust is Made. NW: How Faerie Dust is Made is the first book in The Roscommon Faerie Tales. Roscommon is a county in Ireland, or Eire as it was called back when these stories are set. A colony of faeries lives near the lush forest there.
KR: Humans and faeiries are at odds with each other in this magical tale. Where did you get the idea for it? NW: For all our efforts at equality in today’s society, prejudice, racism and bigotry still plague us. What if the cause was something other than skin color or social class? I’ve always loved tales of faeries, elves, and mermaids. So I decided my tale would be about how faeries and humans might get along together. And being the hopeless romantic I am, I knew the only thing powerful enough to overcome the differences between the two is love.
KR: What did you enjoy most about writing this story? NW: I’d have to say I loved giving the heroine abilities beyond those of humans. If she wanted to disappear… Poof. She was gone. Much to the consternation of the hero.
KR: What did you like best about Conall? NW: He’s a strong, loyal man. He is willing to give his life for those he loves. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that he’s a tall, handsome Irishman with sexy brogue and blue-green eyes.
KR: What made you decide to become a writer? NW: I love to read romance. For years, I read one after another. Some I enjoyed more than others, but I always found something to like about all of them. Until one day when I came across the most boring, lifeless romance novel ever. After forcing myself to finish it, I thought to myself, “Even I could do better than that.” So I decided to give it a try. I found I like writing them just as much reading them.
KR: How do you balance your writing with a busy family life? NW: Well, my family has, and always will, come first. But now that my kids are teenagers and spend less time with mom and dad and more time with school, friends, and part-time jobs, I have more time for myself. I work full-time, so it’s not like I have a lot of time for writing. I watch very little television. I gave up television a long time ago because I prefer to spend those few precious hours of free time reading or writing.
KR: What's the most important thing you've learned so far in your writing career? NW: Never give up. You can’t please everyone, but if you continue to write what you love and strive to improve the quality of your writing, you will find the editor for your story. Getting published is all a matter of finding an editor or agent who loves your story as much as you do. That’s a lot easier said than done, but it’s possible as long as you don’t give up.
KR: What's your favorite thing about being a writer? NW: I love letting my imagination run free. I love thinking, “What if?” Then the characters answer that question. For me, the characters in my stories are in control. I love that. I love having the characters dictate the story to me.
KR: What do you have in the works for lucky readers? NW: Part two of The Roscommon Faerie Tales should be finished soon. Readers will learn what happens to Aisling’s brother, Breandan. He has a feisty red-headed faerie heroine who must save him from a beautiful faerie witch. But before that, I have a historical western set on the Oregon Trail to be published later this year. Anyone who likes to read about sexy cowboys should like The Wagonmaster.
KR: Any vacation plans this year? NW: We hope to have a few days to go to the mountains soon. Like most people these days, funds are tight, so as much as I’d like to take a cruise like we did last year, we’ll be saving the money in hopes of going next year. We cruised for the first time last year and it was the best vacation ever! Okay, all those trips to Disney World, Busch Gardens, Sea World, and all those other amusement parks were fun when the kids were little. But these days, lying around on the beach or by the pool with a good book is far more appealing. Time to read two or three romance novels while someone else cooks, cleans the bathroom, and makes the beds. Now that’s my idea of a vacation!
KR: Thank you!
