Making A Monster

Hello, my name is Sharon Johnson. I am an author of mainly LGBT Thriller/Romance/Paranormal/Suspense. Most of my stories are characters driven, because I love delving into the minds of others.

We all have read those characters that we love to hate. The bad guy, the villain, who we shameless cheer getting their just deserts. But if you’re anything like me I am sure you’ve wondered why they do the things they do. That is the question I delved into with my latest release Monster Made. What series of events lead them down the path of destruction? Are they all bad or were they made that way?

When I first created Hugh in book 1 of my Doubt series I knew he had a troubled past full of abuse and self-hatred. But it wasn’t until I decided to write his origins did I really consider all the ways he had been broken by his past. Hugh is a lion shape shifter, they heal from the most serious of physical injuries, so it stood that what he endured was beyond anything I could imagine.

Researching for this novel lead me to psychological studies of some of the U.S. most prolific serial killers, and one thing they all seemed to have in spades were troubled pasts. Writing Monster Made force me to look at troubling statistics in the hopes of creating a realistic story. It lead to many sleepless nights, and a questionable internet search history, but it did teach me a valuable lesson.
