Goodreads asked Z.L. Arkadie:

What mystery in your own life could be a plot for a book?

Z.L. Arkadie Ooh... Good question! The ongoing drama at my sister's condo complex. The HOA president is a crook. The drama is high. I can really write a good Shari Lapena type novel with all that I know. Like one of the residents, who's a gun enthusiast, who always threatens to shoot the board. It's crazy-town at that complex. It wouldn't be romance though. At the moment, I'm dedicated to writing the romance stories I have in me, out of me. Plus I'm writing a literary fiction novel. But that novel about the association president is on the horizon. I can write it--and it would be unputdownable. Only, I don't think I want to steer my career in that direction. I can't spend my days writing about murder. It's too depressing. Plus, I love writing LOVE too much! <3 Thanks for the question!
