CANDICE LEE BROWN
"Great Authors always seem to have something that drives them. Whether it is that story that they can't get out of their head or the desire to inspire others there is something about them that stands out. There are some Authors that have had quite a Journey. And when the smoke cleared there stood someone smiling at tomorrow knowing that they conquered the road behind them and the road ahead of them was cleared because they knew the person was a Fighter. Someone that not only overcame the odds but showed others that they can do it to. Candice Lee Brown is one of those Great Authors. She let us know what motivates her."
Jason E. Foss
Jason: "What motivated you to start writing your book?"
Candice:
"My author brand, women who overcome the odds, was birthed from my own experience as an overcomer. I became inspired to tell the story of a young woman who escapes sex trafficking by a friend who runs a home for girls with that background. My new adult suspense novel, Love is Not Love, is the result of that inspiration"
Jason: "Which character can you relate to most and why?"
Candice:
"I relate somewhat to the main character, Ceara because, like me, she overcomes an addiction to cocaine. However, it is her rescuer, drug-dealer-gone-straight Danny, whom I most relate to. Danny has a rough past but a heart of gold, and he longs to redeem his past by keeping Ceara hidden and safe from the man who trafficked her. Danny longs to save her but, like the many women I've mentored over the years, there are ways she ends up saving him instead."
Jason: "For your fans and those who will want to buy your book, briefly describe what is about."
Candice:
"Ceara O'Doughtery is a young woman with a new lease on life. Following an encounter with a dealer intent on going straight, she ends up on the run from the man who trafficked her for sex and drugs. Scorned and bruised by Ceara’s disappearance, her obsessed pimp methodically tracks her. Despite Ceara’s brand-new town and identity, he utilizes charm and an unlikely ally to hunt her down. With each thwarted attempt to find her, his hunger and obsession mount. Her formidable mind makes locating her a challenge, but he knows it’s only a matter of time before he tracks her down and presents her with a choice: return to the only person who has ever shown her love or choose to end a pathetic existence without him. Killing Ceara would hurt him, but he’s willing to make that sacrifice to save the woman he loves."
Jason: "Is there any other book you are working on besides the one that is coming out? If so, what can you share with us about it?"
Candice:
"In addition to Love is Not Love, I am also working on a book on prayer that is a partial memoire. The working title is Cocaine to the Classroom and takes prayers I prayed both as an atheist and a young Christian, paralleling prayers in the Bible."
Jason: "For your fans and book lovers that want to read your book when it comes out, what is the best way for them to reach you?"

CLOSING
"Candice Lee Brown is motivated by women that overcame the odds. She's living proof that you can do anything you set your mind to. My favorite thing about Candice is she not only overcomes any obstacles put in front of her path but she chooses to be there for other people to make sure they have a fighting chance to do the same. There is something about someone that has Leader qualities that inspire people. 'If she can do it then I can do it'. That is HOPE. And when you are nicer to give hope to a lot of people than you can truly make a difference. Her new suspense novel "Love Is Not Love" will be added to this blog once the release date is set. Until then click on the Links above to see what Candice Lee Brown is doing to help people to overcome the odds and stay inspired."
