When I wrote Sam Kage, I wanted to write a man struggling to define who he was as he was faced with being attracted to a man for the first time in his life. The whole question of “would you still love me if I wasn’t your mate?” It’s a hard to get around.
Jin was his other half and that actually bothers Jin quite a bit through the first two books. In Change of Heart, there is also the fated mate trope happening that runs through most shifter books so in Logan’s case, he had no choice. Logan Church is also bisexual as he was attracted to women and then when Jin came into his life, he wanted Jin more than anything. Sam Kage in A Matter of Time is bisexual so it may seem like a “gay for you” or “out for you” trope but we discover he is, in fact, bi as he is attracted to both men and women. Both Logan Church and Sam Kage are charismatic and similar in quite a few ways.
That to me is the best kind of character, the one who is strong at their core.Ģ) “Change of Heart Series” and “A Matter of Time Series” have strong “Gay for You” vibes. They might not understand why they’re interested in them but when the “event” occurs, it all becomes clear. To me, the most interesting character is someone that others might initially underestimate but are also drawn to. My purpose in creating all my characters is to make someone strong and powerful who doesn’t have to flaunt their power, either physically, mentally or emotionally.
It could be Jin Rayne from “Change of Heart Series” or Jory Keyes from “A Matter of Time Series” or Stefan Joss from “Timing Series” What did you have in mind while creating these characters? Join us as we strike a conversation with the popular writer about the thought process involved in the making of her novels and their imaginative worlds!ġ) Your novels always have a central character that seem weak, but are innately strong. She bleeds coffee, thinks chocolate should be its own food group, and currently lives in Kentucky with a five-pound furry ninja that protects her from baby birds, spiders and the neighbor’s dogs. Mary Calmes believes in romance, happily ever afters, and the faith it takes for her characters to get there.
