Interview With Jeaniene Frost

I was going to wait a lil' bit before I posted this interview, but I asked myself why wait if you can do it now? So here we go...


Jeaniene Frost is one of my , and other thousands of people, favorite authors. She writes The Night Huntress Series and The Night Huntress World. I love her first series, and can't wait for the second one to hit the book shelves.

Let the fun begin.

First off, a little summary of The Night Huntress Series and Night Huntress World:

The Night Huntress series features half-vampire Cat Crawfield and Master vampire Bones as the main characters. When readers first meet Cat, she’s determined to kill as many vampires as she can in revenge for her undead father assaulting her mother. After Cat is captured by Bones and forced to work with him, she realizes that most of what she’s believed about vampires – and her other nature – isn’t true. Cat also finds out that more than vampires go bump in the night, and that evil isn’t limited to creatures without a heartbeat. When Cat’s relationship with Bones heats up, so does the danger surrounding them, plunging Cat further into the undead world than she ever thought she’d go.

Night Huntress World books are spin-offs from the Night Huntress series featuring side characters as the main characters. FIRST DROP OF CRIMSON, Night Huntress World book one, features Spade (a.k.a. Charles) as the hero and Denise as the heroine. ETERNAL KISS OF DARKNESS, Night Huntress World book two, features Mencheres as the hero and a new character Kira as the heroine. Both books will stand-alone novels, not the start of a new series, and will be set in current times with their storylines running parallel to the Night Huntress series.


Have you always known you wanted to be a writer?

I knew since twelve that I wanted to write a book, because that’s when I really fell in love with reading. But I never thought I’d be able to make a career out of it. I just wanted to write as an outlet for all the stories I had swirling around in my head. Since I’m a classic procrastinator, however, it took me until I was almost thirty to quit talking about writing a book and actually do it. I was halfway through writing a truly awful time travel romance when I got the idea for the Night Huntress books, so I stopped working on the Awful Time Travel novel to start what was to become HALFWAY TO THE GRAVE.


Why enter the Supernatural realm? What attracts you about the supernatural?

I’ve been a fan of the supernatural since I was a child sneaking to watch horror movies. The “what if” factor of the paranormal is fascinating, terrifying, and exciting to me. There’s so much room for larger-than-life heroes, heroines, and villains when you take out the restrictions that apply to “normal” life and introduce supernatural elements. Plus, I’ve been a vampire fan since I first saw Dracula – and wanted him to win over VanHelsing ;-).


When you aren't writing, what do you do in your spare time?

Spare time? What’s that? *wink* Kidding aside, I try to read as much as I can, because with deadlines, my reading time has been cut down a lot. When not reading, my husband and I like to watch movies (usually with a paranormal slant!), go out to dinner, take walks with the dog, or hang out with our families. Yes, sounds very tame, but it’s my characters who like to live on the edge, not me.


Who/what do you consider to be your influence?

As I said earlier, I’ve been a fan of horror movies since I was way too young to watch them. Most of them were paranormal horror movies, so I’m sure that had a big influence on me. I’ve also been a romance reader since age twelve, so that’s had a big influence on me too. Writers who inspired me when I was first psyching myself up to jump into the publishing world were Laurell K Hamilton (first writer I’d read who had vampires as heroes, not just villains!), Diana Gabaldon (Claire’s humor and wit really sparkled), Dean Koontz (his books blend elements of horror, mystery, romance, and the paranormal - all while managing to still be character-driven) and M.M. Kaye, because The Far Pavilions pulled me so deeply into the story that I almost cried when it was over.

How did you derive the idea for your Night Huntress Series?

I came up with the idea from a dream. In my dream, I saw a man and a woman arguing. Somehow I knew the woman was a half-vampire, the man was a full vampire, and they were arguing because he was angry that she'd left him. The story of who they were, and what led up to that point in their lives, evolved and became HALFWAY TO THE GRAVE, but I hadn’t even scratched the surface when I finished that book. In fact, the argument I'd glimpsed in my dream takes place in the second book in the series, ONE FOOT IN THE GRAVE. By the time I was done writing that, I had ideas for the third and fourth books, too.

Do you have favorite characters? If so, why? I love Bones, Cat, Dracula, and Spade.

I’m fickle, because my favorite characters tend to be whoever I’m writing at the moment. Cat and Bones will always have a special place in my heart, because they were my first heroine/hero. However, I’ve emotionally cheated on them, lol. I developed a huge crush on Spade while writing FIRST DROP OF CRIMSON, and Denise also really shined in that story. She’s far stronger and more complicated that I realized when I was writing her as a side character.

Vlad’s character was a complete surprise to me, because when I started writing the series, I resolved never to add Dracula to it. Then in AT GRAVE’S END, Vlad showed up, fully formed in my mind, derisive of his fictional representation, and far too fun to delete because of my former resolution. When writing ETERNAL KISS OF DARKNESS I got very attached to Mencheres, who also surprised me with his many complex layers, his dry wit, and his amazing powers. Kira, the heroine of that novel, started out as someone I *thought* I’d had pegged in the outline stage and then turned every assumption I’d had of her on its head, stymieing my progress until I wrote her the right way. I also have a lot of fun writing Ian, Annette, and yes, even Justina, because they’re sometimes despicable, sometimes honorable, and frequently outrageous.

See? Told you I was fickle!


When did you decide that you were going to do another series from The Night Huntress? Why?

I’ve had the plot ideas about Spade, Denise, and Mencheres swirling in my mind for a long time. About a year before HALFWAY TO THE GRAVE even hit the shelves, I told my editor I wanted to write a book featuring Spade as the hero because I knew exactly who he'd end up with and that she'd meet Denise in my second Cat and Bones book (which my editor hadn’t even read at the time). Then I told her I had even more ideas about Mencheres, who also hadn’t shown up in the series at this point. My editor very gently pointed out that first we'd have to see how this series sold before we could see about doing spin-offs on it. Publishing is a business, so if the Night Huntress series flopped, my odds of readers being interested in spin-offs featuring side characters from it (or my publisher buying those books) were extremely low.

After my first two Night Huntress novels came out and did better than expected, I had my agent approach my editor with proposals for those spin-off books. My editor bought both of them, to my delight. The timing was perfect, because the plotline in the Night Huntress series had progressed to where the first spin off book, FIRST DROP OF CRIMSON, would fit exactly into the events after DESTINED FOR AN EARLY GRAVE (even though Spade and Denise’s story can still easily be read by people who've never picked up a Cat and Bones book). Then ETERNAL KISS OF DARKNESS picks up right after that and segues perfectly into Cat and Bones’s next adventures. Without reader enthusiasm for the Night Huntress series, I wouldn’t have gotten to write the books I’d spent years thinking about, so I can’t express how thrilled I am about that.


How did you come up with Bones? Do you know that almost every female that reads your books is instantly in love with him? (love the British accent).

Hey, I adore him, too! And it’s no accident that Bones is English - I’ve loved that accent since I was a teen. As I mentioned before, Bones showed up in my head as a stubborn, lethal, sexy Master vampire who was very in love with Cat. So right away, I knew what he was, but I didn’t know how he’d gotten to be that way. Finding out the “why’s” became the starting point for his history, and his character – and the story - grew from there.

Where you thinking of Spike from Buffy when you created Bones?

No, but if Bones reminds readers of Spike, I don’t have a problem with that. I’ve had readers say Bones reminds them of Eric from the Sookie Stackhouse series, Jean-Claude from LKH’s series, Lestat from Anne Rice’s series, Legolas from Lord of the Rings, Marcus from Blade the TV series, Acheron from the Dark Hunter series, Spike from Buffy, Edward from the Twilight series…the list goes on. With how Bones changes his hair color from book to book, I expect he’ll remind readers of even more fictional characters in the future, too. Whatever makes readers happy while they’re reading is fine by me.

When writing about Bones’s appearance, I was thinking of Viggo Mortensen’s cheekbones,


Billy Idol’s bleached hair (yes, that SO dates me, I know!),


and Bruce Campbell’s dark eyebrows,


...all mixed with a body that came straight from my naughty imagination. The English accent resulted from my long-time love of them (I blame my teenage crush on Billy Idol, but really, is there anyone who doesn’t like English accents?). Then Bones’s swagger, attitude, and biting wit were combinations of things that cracked me up, plus hints of John Cusack in Grosse Point Blank and the “hail to the king, baby!” arrogant hilarity from (again) Bruce Campbell in Army of Darkness, all mixed with how his character appeared in my head. So in many ways, Bones is a stir-fry of a lot of different people and things simmered together with my own twisted imagination.


If your book/books were turned into a movie, who would you like to play the main characters?

I really don’t know. I have yet to see an actor who makes me think “he could be Bones!” Cat might be easier. I’ve said before I thought if Scarlett Johansson dyed her hair red, she’d be a good representative of Cat.


Or Emily Blunt, also assuming her hair was dyed red. Bones…there’s a reason he’s fictional. In real life, most men just don’t look as amazing as he does in my mind =].


And finally, could you give us a glimpse into First Drops of Crimson?

Sure! When Denise is forced by a demon shapeshifter to locate a relative who backed out of a dark deal, she turns to Master vampire Spade for help. Spade swore he'd never fall for a human again, but as they scour the undead world together, his desire for Denise becomes too great to resist. But once the true depth of the demon’s hold over Denise is revealed, even Spade’s power might not be enough to save her.

Back cover description, teaser page, first chapter, and book trailer for FIRST DROP OF CRIMSON can all be found here. Book releases February 9th.

  16. The Night Huntress series was one of the first series in UF that I ever read. Jeaniene, I love your books to death and re-read them all the time! It's frustrating not having Destined for an Early Grave because it sounds like the best book in the series so far! If I win, that's definitely my choice.

  21. I really love The Night Huntress series, even though I started off apprehensive because the series title is so similar to the Dark Hunter series by Sherrilyn Kenyon.

    I'm actually a film student (sort of), and I've played around with writing scripts for practice, and over the holiday season last December, I had the chance to talk to an English teacher friend who helped me work out an idea of how to sell the books if they were made into movies. :D Lots of fun that night, and I swear it was like Cat and Bones were in my head, telling me what to say to him!

  22. I love the Cat and Bones series. I am going to miss them while Jeaniene is writing the spin-offs. I have read all the books and even some of the short stories (Four Dukes and a Devil & Weddings from Hell). I have FDOC on order. I cannot wait for it to arrive.

  26. I started loving The Night Huntress series the moment I read the first page of Halfway to the Grave.

    Loved the interview and it only gets me more excited for First Drop of Crimson. I know I'll be running to the bookstore that day. Secretly I'm hoping I'm off that day so I can get there the moment the bookstore opens and read the book right away. Wonder if I can call off sick if I have to work, hehe.

    Bones is also my favorite vampire, love him!!

    Can't wait to read the new book!!

  29. I have read every one in this series at least twice. I adore Bones and Cat. After reading this review I can see why they are so fun.

  35. Jeaniene entered my life 3 years a go and I must say I couldn't have asked for a better author to keep my mind off the downers of studying. Love her books, great style of writing and the way she plays with readers emotions is a true talent! Can't wait until Spade and Denise's book!

  57. Hi all. Thanks so much to Taschima agian for having me here. What a bunch of amazing comments! You guys are awesome.

    Re-"Jeaniene, are you thinking by any chance of writing a book about Vlad?! I love that character!!"

    Thanks, I love Vlad, too! I'm hoping for the chance to write books on Vlad. When it's contract time, I intend to broach that with my publisher. Cross your fingers for me that my pub house likes the idea, too :)

    "I was wondering if Jeaniene got to keep that huge cover poster behind her in the picture at the start of the interview."

    Yes, I did. I also have one that size for DESTINED FOR AN EARLY GRAVE because of a publicity push my publisher did at last year's RWA convention. They're so big (and my townhouse, kinda small), so I only have one up. If I get a bigger place one day, maybe I'll have room to hang both, lol.

    Thanks so much again, everyone!

  64. I haven't read this series yet so i'm having trouble combining all of those features for bones, but i'm sure after I start reading it i'll known exactly what she means!

  65. Okay thanks to Jeaniene Frost's twisted and naughty imagination we have the rugged and sexy vampire Bones brought to life in the Night Huntress series and female fans everywhere have been near swooning reading the steaming scenes between he and Cat. Thanks for this very lovely and so chock full of tidbits from Jeaniene interview Taschima. Thank you Jeaniene for letting your love of the paranormal and especially Dracula influence you and create for us fans such compelling characters. Looking forward to the new series and will be sad to see the 1st end someday, however when read that you have Mencheres as the lead in Eternal Kiss Of Darkness and that it is a segue into Cat and Bones next adventures it made my day!!!!!!
    :)))))))))))))))))))))))))
    Would love the chance to get a copy of FDOC please!!!!

  68. Jeaniene,

    I just started reading Halfway to the Grave and it's amazing. I also own Destined for an Early Grave. So I've got some reading to do to catch up.

    Great interview too, by the way. And thanks for the visuals. They really help when trying to paint a picture while reading.

  71. I love the celebrity influences on the characters. Sometimes I just want a clearer picture of certain characters, and it is also fun to compare mental images with the author. (I feel like I am not phrasing my enthusiasm correctly) Sometimes you like to keep your own mental image (I hate when authors finally give a physical description when you already have one solidly in your mind, you know when you're in the last 3rd of the book and finally we learn the main character has black hair not not curly brown hair, etc etc)

  72. I recently read a review on Halfway to the Grave and it looks really good. I think I will enjoy this series a lot. Great interview. Interesting cast picks for each character. Can't wait to start the series!

  78. have been following Jeaniene Frost's books since december 2008. Jeaniene Frost is possibly one of my all time favourite authors. The reason i got into the Night Huntress Series was because i read jeaniene's Bio (on her 1st offical web page why it still had the grey grave yard scene) that when she was little a preist had asked her "what she wanted to be when she grew up?" her answer was that she wanted to be a vampire, therefore embaressing her parents. to this day her answer makes me giggle like a fool because after telling my mother this answer she told me i had done something similar.
    I would love to win a copy of First Drop Of Crimson. Although i live in the UK so im not sure if that is possible.
    Thank you for holding the competition.
    Hugs and Loves,

  79. Awesome interview! I can not get enough of Jeaniene Frost and her spectacular series. She is my absolute favorite author. So far none of the guy characters I have read about in other books compare to Bones. He is my favorite male fictional character. Oh how I wish he was real.....

    jen72684@hotmail.com

    ReplyDelete
  80. Wow...I must say that the interview was very interesting. Especially the Bones part a lot of the characters that are listed that are like him I see no resemblance to other characters. Honestly, Bones to me cannot be topped and it seems like everyone wants to compare them to others, but I see him in such a different way. Bones to me is so unique that you cannot compare him to Edward, Jean-Claude, Acheron, or other fictional characters. But then again that's just my opinion. Anyway I really enjoy these books and I would love to see more interviews.

    ReplyDelete
  81. I love the fact that you created characters, such as Bones, that can only live in our imagination. They are not look-a-likes or cookie cutter characters.

    I've had this series on my wishlist and would love to win it.

I truly enjoy reading their roller coaster of Love and am looking forward to the other novels in the Night Huntress series!

  83. Jeaniene, I love your combination of facial and hair traits for Bones. Those three, especially Billy Idol (big fan of his in the 80s) and Bruce Campbell. I have not read your books yet, but people like Taschima speak so highly of them...and after reading this interview...I'm truly intrigued and really want to read them now.

  92. sigh. deff inspired now... :D one of my stories came to me in a dream, too !! only i ended up trashing the story line and keeping the character. He stars in a 10+ book world right now (of course i haven't finished it...) who knows maybe i'll actually publish it one day. Thank you, Jeaniene, for being inspiring and encouraging :D

    I have the first book in the series but haven't had a chance to read it... Hopefully over summer vacation while i'm not crunched for school :D especially if Bones has an English accent... maybe I should move it up to the top of the tbr list? :D love it.

  93. I'm so addicted to this series and it keep me anticipate every second for the new coming series "First Drops of Crimson". At the same time,I really hope Jeaniene could continue the 5th book for Night Huntress Series as I loves Bones & Cat character so much. The 4th book "Destined for an Early Grave" is totally amazing piece of writing as I personally feel with the new character of Gregor,Jeaniene is really good in drawing suspend and doubt on the reader. Bravo all the way for your new book Jeaniene!!!

  99. Man I just love all her books. I'm really excited that she's starting this night huntress world, so many options with where to go! I'm not sure Scarlet Johansen is who I picture when I think of Cat. I think I see her much more hmmm angular? Where as Scarlet is very soft. Honestly I'd be scared if they made a movie about Cat and Bones. They're just too perfect in my mind, there's no way they would live up to my expectations :-)

I want to read them again, and again, and again until I remember every word in the book. I plan to read J. Frost's wonderful series plenty of times in my lifetime. I admire how Mrs. Frost can come up with the books because they are so freaking awesome! I don't think many books can compete with her series--to me--and I hope there will be more and more books to sate my thirst for Cat and Bones and all the other characters.

  132. Hello Jeaniene! I stumbled across your books through a friends shelf on Shelfari and since then... well... I'm addicted!

    I'm a huge fan when authors pull and push and tear and yank a pairing about before and after you've established them. You do that so wonderfully. I love all the trouble Cat gets herself into and how Bones doesn't take her crap... okay he takes it a bit but she takes his too so its got a nice balance going.

    I can't wait to read "First Drops of Crimson".

    Thanks for weaving such addictive tales for us all.

    You're right - no way could I pick just one. In books, outside of my own vamps, my favorites would have to be Jean-Claude, Eric Northman, and Dracula from the newly-released Dracula: The Undead.

  158. Everywhere I go there is praise for Jeaniene Frost and the Night Huntress books. They've been on my TBR pile for a while so I think I really should get around to reading them LOL. Also everyone keeps talking about Bones so hopefully he will live up to all the hype (but with the English accent I don't think he will have a problem!).

  159. I enjoy your books so much, and I'm happy to have been able to read it as it is published, more or less. I'm just wondering what the most interesting comparison of Bones to *blank* any reader has mentioned to you. Comparing vampires to vampires is to be expected, but have there been any comparisons that were more unexpected?

  160. Sadly I haven't had the chance to read any of her books, but that is somethinig I plan to change soon! I can't wait to read about Bones he seems so cool! If he is something like Viggo... ;)

  162. Jeaniene: What can I say? It so wonderful to see so many become acquainted with all your lovely characters. That has to mean alot.

    I do have a new question. You told us you had plans for Spade and Denise to get together before HTTG was even published. This would mean poor Randy never had a chance. Are we allowed to know if the same situation exists with Justina? Was Rodney a dead man walking in more than one sense of the word? Is it possible that you have someone in mind lined up to be Justina's next victim? That would be cruel beyond description, but, I can think of a few candidates who would deserve it.

    And I love how everyone seems to focus on Bones or Vlad. And no one else!!

  163. That interview was awesome!!! I always enjoy the pictures to clarify what exactly bones would look like. I'm not sure I like the eyebrows on Bruce Campbell though. He seems to have an "eyebrow arch". lol. Of course, I still want to be in the contest.

  164. Great interview!!! I'm not so sure about Bruce Campbell either...Bones is too unique! SO excited about FDOC, may have to run out & buy it, I don't think I can wait for the library on this one. Thanks for the original questions, I love knowing more about one of my favorite authors!

  165. You are totally correct on your assessment that Bones is just to amazing to think of a person who could like he does in the imagination.

    I think Scarlet Johannson is super hot...but I think she might be a bit to curvy for Cat...but, maybe not...those pics looked like an awesome representation of her.

    I can't wait to read the newest book and fall in love with Spade as well as Bones.

  167. This was a very good interview. I haven't read any of these books yet but they sound good. Interesting they started from a dream! I like how you "imagined" Bones from different actors.

  169. I love Jeaniene Frost's books! I believe that no matter how many times I read it, I will never think it's boring, or I won't be that excited to turn the page.

    It's really cool how some of the most awesome books come from dreams.

    I think that Bones is too hot and darned sexy to be imagined properly. I always sorta have an altering image of him, always changing looks. If I try to imagine what he looks like in more detail, my brrain just flips through different people that either looks very close to how he looks, or very far. But I've fallen in love with Bones either way.

    I think that Scarlett does sorta look like Cat, in my head, but I imagine that the girl on the cover of the series looks more like her.

    This is an awesome interview!
