10 Random questions

1. Can you solve a rubix cube?
God no.


2. Do you gamble?
I kick butt at Texas Holdem. (Thanks hubby for the lessons)


3. Have you ever stolen a street sign?
No, but I did have a fire hydrant dropped into my front yard as a joke.


4. Tea or Coffee?
Both, I have a caffeine addition.


5. What is your song of the week?
Selfie by Chainsmokers (fun fact: I suck at selfies)


6. Do you parallel park or drive around the block?
You don't want me to parallel park. I must definitely drive around the block.


7. Who is the last person you think about before falling asleep?
Whichever book character I am currently writing, lately it would be Chase ;)


8. What is the weirdest thing you've done while driving?
Clipped my nails. I hate hangnails. They drive me berserk.

10. If you could eat lunch with one famous person, who would it be?
Now I know I should pick someone who would give me insight and great words of wisdom like the Bill Gates, the Pope, or a former President, but (and this will come as no surprise) I would probably pick Jensen Ackles, so I could sit there, gazing into his baby blue eyes and talk about demons (great research material too.) Then at the end he would plant one on me for realz and I'd swoon.
Wait...what?

25 Random Things About Moi (just in case you were wondering)

I've done a post like this before, but I think they are so fun, so I decided to do an up-to-date one.


1. My current fiction boyfriend is...wait for it...Chase Winters. (I can't help myself. I just love him.)

2. I have 2 tattoos. A double infinity on the inside of my left wrist (Yes, like Revenge. What can I say? I'm a dork) And a tramp stamp on my lower back. (This just emphasizes my said dorkiness)

3. I've been married for 13 years, and I have two boys who are 16 and 12. Say what? Yep, I have a 16 year old. Still blows my mind.

4. My favorite color is blue.

5. I have a thing for eyes. When I write a book, I constantly want to write about their eyes. Sometimes I over do it.

6. I love pierces. Other than my ears, I have 1 body piercing. My belly button. I did have my nose pierced a few years ago, but it didn't last.

7. Secretly, I want to dye my hair pink.

8. My celebrity crush is Jensen Ackles (No surprise as he is plastered all over my blog - its embarrassing)

9. I like twitter more than Facebook

10. My full name is Jennifer Lee Weil

11. Right this minute, my favorite song is Katy Perry's Dark Horse. And I make a fool of myself daily by belting the lyrics way off key.

12. I have the WORST diet ever. For breakfast I eat cookies, cakes, anything sweet and chocolately with a cup of coffee. Everyday.

13. I am obsessed with almost every show on the CW (Star-crossed is my new favorite. Holy hot aliens. Roman = yum-o-tastic)

14. Coke-cola is my favorite drink, especially with lime slices.

15. My first crush was Jordan Knight from NKOTB. I swear I was in love.

16. I go through candles like it is nobodies business. My favorite candle is Beachwalk by Yankee Candle. I also really like Bath & Body Works candles as well.

17. I have a cat. Her name is Snickers, but we call her Kiki. No clue why.

18. My favorite type of food is Chinese. (Now I am starving)

19. I always make weird faces when having my picture taken.

20. Bath Bombs from Lush are my recent favorite find. I am a bubble bath kind of girl (I get all my really good ideas while I am soaking in scented suds.)

21. Lately I have been listening to a whole ton of Dubstep. But I really like all genres of music.

22. I get very excited about food.

23. The last few chapters of a book are the hardest for me to write. I procrastinate like a mofo.

24. I dance and sing in the car. My kids hate it, which then makes me laugh.

25. I wear glasses, because I am blind as a bat.

Q&A - Divisa Series


So I thought I would do a Q&A on the Divisa Series, maybe answer a few questions people have been pondering. If there was a question I didn't touch upon, leave me a comment =)

1. When will Chasing Angel be released?
I don't know. Sorry guys, that is a sucky answer. There are a bunch of factors that will determine the release. And one them I can't say. The other one is the readers. There is a current running poll for the summer to decide which book I should write next, so if you want to reading Chasing Angel, vote!

2. Is Chasing Angel the last book in the series?
Hmmm. If you would have asked me prior to writing Hunting Angel, I would have said yes, but now that it is complete I am just not positive that this will be the last book. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

3. What is up with the Divisa mark?
It is a mark given to half-human, half-demon from the demon that sired them. The mark distinguishes which demon bloodline they were born from and each is unique to the demon. So Lexi and Travis share the same mark, they were both sired from the same demon, whereas Chase's is different.

4. Is the Divisa series only available for the Kindle?
As of right now it is only on Amazon, but you can also purchase a paperback through Amazon or Createspace as well. Hopefully in the future it will branch out to other platforms.

5. What does it mean to be half-demon?
Well, being half demon is like having another being inside you. One that can be destructive, wild, out-of-control, dangerous. It sort of like having split personalities I guess. There is this demon that lives inside them that they constantly struggle to keep under wraps. During the day, the demon often lays dormant. It is when the sunsets that things start to get dicey.

6. What does Divisa mean?
Divisa is actually a Latin word that means divided. When I was looking for a name to the species of half-humans, half-demons I knew I wanted to use a Latin or maybe a Celtic word, so googled (my best friend). And I came across the word for divided and it just fit. They are literally divided between their human half and their demon half.

Ummm that's all for now, I think. Let me know if you there is something you want to know more about. I also love to do interviews. Actually, I did my first video interview over the weekend, and I will be posting links to those videos when they become available. It was very informal and so much fun. Two girls chitchatting about their love for books. I had a blast Elena - Thank you!!

I'm having a moment...

Hello future husband...


Dear God... Someone hose me down. Just in case you didn't know, I have a serious, umm serious crush on Jensen Ackles! *fans self*

Things have been crazy for me lately. I hope you all had a fab-u-lous Memorial Day!

Well, it is crunch time for me as I do the last bit of finesse on Hunting Angel. I am beyond excited to get this book out. It has been such a whirlwind year for me.

In the past year, I wrote and published my first book, along with 3 others. My 5th one is due out next month. @_@

Not too shabby for a girl with a big dream.

I just wanted to thank you all for making this such an awesome year for me. I absolutely love hearing from you and all the emails I've gotten.

You guys rock!!!

XOXO
