Timeline
Passionflix purchased the film rights to several of Ashley's novels. The Will, based on Ashley's novel of the same name, was released on February 14, 2020. It was directed by Louise Alston and starred Megan Dodds, Chris McKenna, Martin Dingle Wall and Patrick Byas. In 2020, Passionflix will be filming an adaption of Ashleys' "Three Wishes".
As of 2019, Ashley had published more than 60 novels, which have been translated into 14 languages and sold a combined three million copies.
In interviews, Ashley states that she struggled with sleep due to an active mind, which she turned to creating stories that she continued developing over time. Her heroes are often Alpha males with the heroine bringing a strong character to match them. Her heroines run the gamut from independent women who run their own businesses to more traditional women whose utmost goal is to become a mother. Family, friends and music are recurring thematic elements. She claims that she does not tone down or restrict her characters into the typical hero and heroines found in romance novels, this being part of the reason for rejections by traditional publishers. She notes that "I celebrate imperfections. ...None of my characters are perfect. They don’t say the right thing. They get exhausted and they pick at each other and they bicker." She's written racially diverse characters, as well as LGBTQ characters.
Ashley finally decided to publish her work independently on Kindle. She released three or four of her previously written titles each month and found an audience relatively quickly. Her readership expanded after a major blogger reviewed one of her novels, Sweet Dreams. Between her day job and her writing and publishing efforts, Ashley worked, on average, 14–16 hours a day, seven days a week, for years. Once her writing career reached a certain threshold, Ashley hired help; she now has an assistant and works with graphic designers, proofreaders, and copyeditors.
In 2013, Ashley signed her first traditional publishing contract, with Grand Central Publishing's Forever line. As of 2019, she had released three series' worth of books through traditional publishing. Ashley chose to foray into traditional publishing for two primary reasons. First, she wanted to improve her craft by working with an experienced editor. Second, she wanted to make her books more accessible. With traditional publishing, her novels would be available in print as well as ebooks, which would expand her audience to people without ereaders and those who liked to browse bookstores and libraries. Ashley insisted that her publisher keep ebook prices low, at $3.99, to ensure that readers weren't priced out. In an interview in 2019, she noted that her "print sales are abysmal"; most of her income comes from ebook sales and merchandise that she creates based on her books.
Kristen Ashley (born Kristen A L Moutaw: April 8, 1968) is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of more than 75 books in 14 languages, with over three million copies sold. Two of her novels have been adapted into film.
