Can
you tell me something about yourself?
I have lived my
entire life in Tennessee and Georgia, except for one ‘lost summer’ spent in Los
Angeles.
What
inspired you to write?
I have always written
articles on different subjects however Fables
of the Reconstruction is my debut novella. Earlier this year I ruptured
my Achilles tendon and have had major complications and setbacks to the healing
process. So, I’ve had lots of time on my hands to research and write during the
last few months.
I’m
sorry to hear that Hunter and hope you are well soon.
Who
are you favourite authors?
Thanks for asking,
it’s just so difficult to choose from so many gifted people. I own more Anne
Rice book’s than any other author, so that must mean something.
Can
you tell me something about your latest book?
Fables of the Reconstruction is the story of a Belgian pimp, Pierre
von Minzle, living in Victorian London with a 'magic' powder, claiming to be
undead. He believes in Pomba Gira mysticisms & follows Creole Voodoo. He
believes he has found his equal in Mary Montague, and makes her undead, too. The
story itself is told from four points of view. There is a modern, surprise
twist to the book's ending.
Oh
my, this sounds intriguing; I will have to read your novella.
So,
how long did it take you to write it?
From the first day
writing to the publishing date, Fables of
the Reconstruction took ten weeks. The stories were in my imagination, just
waiting to be researched and told.
Can
you tell us something about the writing process, do you have a set time for
writing, did you do any research or anything else of interest that was
involved?
I attempt to write
100 words every day. My best writing and ideas seem to present themselves at
night. I am a huge history buff and have travelled extensively so that enabled
me to have an understanding of the locations created for Fables of the Reconstruction.
What
do you think readers will come away with when they have finished your book?
I hope readers will
look forward to Book 2 – Reconstruction of the Fables – coming in Spring 2013.
THANK
YOU FOR THIS INTERESTING EXCERPT...
Invocation to the Goddess
Pomba Gira is a
wonderful Goddess. Treat her with respect and reverence and she will bestow her
blessings upon you. A beguiling spirit, Pomba Gira gives comfort to the broken
hearted, vengeance for the wronged, and a fierce path for those that will take
her as muse.
Pomba Gira is the
Goddess of the Night. She is the Goddess of guitars, cemeteries, tombs,
streets, crossroads, the soul, and the oceans. There are various manifestations
of the Goddess, such as Maria Padilha, Compass Rose, Queen of the Seven
Crossroads, Pombagira of Calunga, Pombagira of Souls, Gypsy Pombagira,
Pombagira Maria Mulambo, Red Rose, Miss Rosie Skull.
Really, wouldn’t you be disappointed if a girl from Nashville didn’t
start her book with a prayer to the Goddess of the guitar?
Any
other links of interest:
Please look for my
series of short stories called Tales from
a New Amsterdam, available soon on Amazon.com
Thank
you for giving us an insight into your work and novella. I am sure everyone will find it interesting.

Can you tell me something about
yourself?
I'm
a 37-year-old freelance writer living with a congenital heart defect.
I
have enjoyed writing since I was a kid. When I got to college, I decided to
turn it into a career, and earned my BA in Journalism. I have been freelance
writing for several years now.
I
have always wanted to write a book, and decided I wanted to write for children.
I love fantasy movies like "The Lord of the Rings" and "Harry
Potter," so I decided to try my hand at writing one of my own.
My
first publication is "The Chosen," a young adult fantasy I worked on
for about three years. It was published by Solstice Publishing on December 14,
2010. The second book in THE CHOSEN series, "Nature's Unbalance," was
published on July 17, 2012. I am currently working on the third book in the
series, and have a concept for the fourth.
I
have also published "My Open Heart," an autobiography about growing
up with heart disease. My hope is that it will give encouragement to young
adults growing up with heart disease, or other chronic illnesses, as well as
parents of children growing up with heart disease.
I
live in the Tampa Bay, FL area, where I grew up. I am originally from NJ.
What inspired you to write?
A love of books, reading, and
writing. I’ve always loved to read and write. When a story didn’t go the way I
wanted it to, I made up alternative endings in my head. I still do that for a
lot of TV shows and movies I watch. When I write my books, I can write the
ending however I want to.
Who are you favourite authors?
Danielle Steel, J.K. Rowling, Rick
Riordan, Nicholas Sparks, Melissa Foster, Tonya Kappes
Can you tell me something about your
latest book?
“Nature’s Unbalance” is the second
book in “The Chosen” series. I wanted to continue writing about these
characters, and send them on a new adventure. The adventure consists of saving
Nature, who is a real person, from a darkness that is trying to destroy her and
her creations.
Wow! So, how long did it take you to
write it?
About six months.
Can you tell us something about the
writing process, do you have a set time for writing, did you do any research or
anything else of interest that was involved?
(laughing) I don’t really have a
“process.” When I feel up to writing, I sit at my computer and type what comes
to mind. I’ve come to learn that this is called being a pantser. I love that
term! But I don’t have a ritual or even a schedule I follow.
As for research, if I feel stuck,
I’ll watch a fantasy movie to get inspired. And sometimes, I’ll have to look up
how to write certain scenes, such as battle scenes. I’ve also had to draw a map
of my world, and write up a character sheet to keep track of everyone as I add
new characters to the books.
What do you think readers will come
away with when they have finished your book.
A sense of being themselves. My
books are aimed at young adults, and I’m hoping they’ll learn that being
themselves is ok, no matter who that may be. I also try to get my motto across
in my books, which Reach for the Stars, and Make Your Dreams Come True.
Would you share an interesting
paragraph or two from your book with us?
Too
concerned about hurting Nature, Red ran toward her and forced them all to stop
their attacks on the cloud. They feared they would hit Red with their spells.
But the arrows, fireballs and frost bolts still lingered in the air on a
collision course with him.
“No!”
Silvor screamed. He ran between Red and one of his own fire balls.
A
loud cry pierced through the air when a fireball exploded. Then, a massive
billow of smoke consumed the dust cloud, Nature, Red and Silvor. Everyone else
ran for cover, and each lost sight of the others in the chaos. Another horrific
cry of pain and agony came from nearby. When they composed themselves, they saw
Halli fall to her knees on the ground. She dropped her mace and shield beside
her, and covered her face with her hands, which muffled some of her cries.
“She’s hurt!” Kaidyla rushed to her
side. But when she got to her, she didn’t see a single mark on Halli and
couldn’t figure out what caused her friend to scream. Then, she looked in front
of her. When the smoke cleared, she saw Red, Silvor and Nature lay motionless
on the ground.

Title: Blue
Coyote Motel
Author: Dianne Harman
Page
Count: 297
ISBN: 978-0-615-71745-6
Genre: Suspense-Thriller
Link
Amazon USA http://www.amazon.com/Blue-Coyote-Motel-ebook/dp/B009PAQBFE/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1351097994&sr=1-1&keywords=blue+coyote+motel
About me:
I have a
diverse business and personal background. I owned a national antique and art
appraisal business for many years, leaving that field and opening two yoga
centers where I taught yoga and certified yoga instructors. I have travelled
extensively throughout the world, most recently dividing my time between
Huntington Beach and Sacramento, California where my husband is a Senator. I'm
a gourmet cook and have entertained Governors, Congressmen and other political
figures in my homes. I'm an avid read and have brought the richness of my life
experiences to my novel, Blue Coyote Motel.
The
genesis of Blue Coyote Motel happened when my husband and I
were guests at a wedding in Palm Springs, California last year at a boutique
hotel. Our son was best man and the wedding party had taken over the newly
renovated old Palm Springs Motel. It was October and the temperature was 106.
The needed air-conditioning was silent and I mentally compared it to the heater
in our home in Huntington Beach that sounds like a truck is rumbling throughout
the house when it's on. I remember turning to my husband and saying,
"Wouldn't it be something if a 'feel good' drug could be piped into the
air-conditioning and everybody was happy?" He turned to me and said,
"There's your book." It went from there.
Ayn Rand
is one of my favourite authors along with Jennifer Weiner and others too
numerous to mention.
My latest
novel is a political tell-all/love-affair. The head of the Republican Senate
once told me that no one in Sacramento knows more than I do as to where the
bodies are buried and what really goes on. I have spent most of the last twelve
years in the political arena there so I decided to write about it. It will be
released in early 2013. It took me a couple of months to write. It's the
rewrites that take the time!
I have to
agree with you about the re-writes Dianne.
I write
almost every day. When I'm travelling, I use my iPad and then transfer what
I've written to my main computer. I'm very fortunate to have the time to it.
With my first draft, I spend a lot of time researching. After that's done, it's
honing, fine-tuning and tightening the book. I love to learn and writing allows
me to really delve into various subjects.
I hope
that everyone who picks up one of my books will simply say, "That was a
great read. I didn't want it to end.
The
following is a paragraph from Tea Party Teddy:
They come
to Sacramento with a grand plan of the things they want to accomplish, intent
on carrying out the will of the people who elected them. When their time in
Sacramento is up because of term limits, they leave, having accomplished
nothing, worn down by the reality of the political world and sporting a big
imaginary "W" on their foreheads standing for "whore.” After
just a few weeks into each new legislative session, there are no virgins left
in the world of Sacramento politics.
Thanks
for the chance to be interviewed by you.
Thank you
Dianne, it has been my pleasure and this has been a very interesting insight
into your work.

An Interview with Jessica Knauss

Welcome Jessica, I am so pleased that you have agreed to being interviewed today...
Welcome Jessica, I am so pleased that you have agreed to being interviewed today...
Title: Rhinoceros
Dreams
Author: Jessica Knauss
Page Count: about 50 (it’s ebook only for now)
ISBN: 9781937291594
Genre: magical realism
Cost: only 99 cents or 77 pence!
Link Amazon USA: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0093TWVY2
Link Amazon UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0093TWVY2
Can you tell me something about yourself?
I’m a writer and a professional editor, working with my
colleagues at Loose Leaves Publishing to release the best literary, historical,
mystery/thriller and women’s fiction in English to the world. I (currently)
live in the Atlanta area with my dear husband.
What inspired you to write?
I was born a writer. Specifically for Rhinoceros Dreams, I wanted to celebrate World Rhino Day by putting
together a book with stories about rhinos so people could learn about them in a
fun – and inexpensive – way. The magic of rhinos lies not in superstitions
about their horns, but in their majesty and in all creatures' basic right to
live.
Who are your favourite authors?
Aimee Bender, Lydia Millet, Lori Baker, Karen Russell and
now Félix J. Palma
Can you tell me something about your latest book?
Rhinoceros Dreams
is a collection of three short stories featuring rhinoceroses and the humans
who love them.
"Rhinoceros Dreams" tells how Allie, a woman
fascinated with rhinoceroses, finds true love in the human world with a
bookworm. Can he ever truly understand her? Can she make her rhinoceros dreams
come true?
"Not Extinct Yet," available exclusively in this
collection, happens in an alternate world in which animals can talk. Intrepid
rhinoceros linguist Suzanne takes on the responsibility to save her African
rhino friends from extinction by mindless poaching. When you want to know
something about a rhino, you should always ask a rhino!
"A Business Venture in Glue" is a weird flash
fiction that uses a rhino escaped from a zoo to suggest themes of collectionism
and possession.
Wow! How long did it take you to write it?
I wrote “A Business Venture,” in about an hour. I would say
“Rhinoceros Dreams” took me six months or a year to settle on an ending that
felt right. And I’ve been fiddling with sentences and research ever since. “Not
Extinct Yet” took about a month, and after I got suggestions from some great
crit partners, I spent another month or two all together tweaking… The thing
about these stories is that their relevance to the real world invites constant
evolution, but in order to get the stories out for World Rhino Day 2012
(September 22), I had to say enough was enough in August.
Can you tell us something about the writing process, do you
have a set time for writing, did you do any research or anything else of
interest that was involved?
What do you think readers will come away with when they have
finished your book?
I hope readers will have had fun and learned about those
magical beasts, rhinoceroses, and the problems they have in the real world, so
bizarre they seem like fiction. In the best of all possible worlds, the book
will convince readers that poaching is insane and has to stop immediately.
WOULD YOU SHARE AN INTERESTING PARAGRAPH OR TWO FROM BOOK WITH US?
Here are the first few paragraphs from “Not Extinct Yet.”
Suzanne came into the kitchen dressed for
work in a sensible suit. With bitten-down fingernails, she had affixed a pin
showing the two-horned face of an African rhinoceros, surrounded by a heart, to
her lapel. “Hey,” said her husband Derek, rustling his daily news at the table.
“The British are at it again.”
Suzanne sighed. “Always with the sheep.”
“Yep. Apparently, there’s a law for debate
in Parliament this time.”
“Not legalization?”
“Marriage between human and ovine may soon
be a reality! Get this.” He started to read aloud. “An anonymous source
recounted his personal experience. ‘Miranda was out in the moor grazing with
the rest of the flock when I looked deep into her eyes. It was love. We fell to
talking and we’ve never been apart since.’ The Miranda in question gave no
comment.”
“Call me traditional, but there’s
something not quite right about that,” said Suzanne as she buttered some toast.
“Sure, she can talk, but does this guy let
her? No. It’s the same old story. Control, control, control.” Derek crumpled
the paper and took his plate to the sink.
Suzanne kissed her husband. “All right,
off to the university’s salt mines with you.”
“You know he made up that name. Who ever
heard of a sheep who called herself Miranda?”

Can
you tell me something about yourself?
I’m
29. Lokians: Book1 Beyond the End of the World is the first novel I’ve written.
The fact that it’s the first installment of a sci fi series provides me with an
endless supply of ideas. I hope to start a new sci fi movement with this
series, maybe shirts, stickers, and artwork, it’s all in the works.
What
inspired you to write?
I’ve always enjoyed it but
only recently decided to try to get something published. Most of my skills came
from term papers, exposes, and articles, all while in college, but in April of
2011 I wrote my first short story. Since then, I’ve plugged away everyday and I
love it.
Yes I think writing can be addictive so who
are you favourite authors?
Carlos
Castaneda. His works have had a profound effect on my life as a whole.
Can
you tell me something about your latest book?
My latest book is Lokians: Book2 They Lurk
Among Us, the second installment of my sci fi series. The story picks up a few
months after the defeat of the Lokians, an insect-like race of aliens, and
Riley O’Hara, of Earth Navy, is on a new mission. It is believed that the
Grays, the common, big-headed aliens we all know and love, are created by the
same race of aliens who modified the Lokians for war.
Wow this sounds fascinating..
How long did it take you to write it?
It
only took a few months to get the story down. After that, I spent about a month
running edits. I submitted it to Eternal Press, the same publisher who released
Beyond the End of the World, and they liked it. I’m still waiting for their
suggestions and fine-tuning but They Lurk Among Us will be released November 1st.
Can
you tell us something about the writing process, do you have a set time for
writing, did you do any research or anything else of interest that was involved
?
I
find myself writing in the morning, more so than other hours. I don’t sleep
much, so I tend to scribble a bunch of notes throughout the night. So far as
research goes, yes… good gravy, yes. I did about 10+ hours for Beyond the End
of the World. I have an affinity for engineering anyway, so studying current
rocket engine design, alternate sources of power, and aircraft design was a lot
of fun. I also researched a good deal of astrophysics because I wanted my space
travel to make sense. On top of all that, I researched a great deal of biology
too. I like my aliens to be unique, yes, bug-aliens and Grays are well known,
but my versions include some detailed biological data. The bullet-point of my
writing philosophy is; just get the story down. Revisions will come later and
that’s when I refine the scenes, dialogue, transitions, etc.
What
do you think readers will come away with when they have finished your book?
A
feeling of having run a mental marathon, fun and relentless. Hopefully, I can
revive the action/thriller aspect of sci fi and put that Dystopian stuff to
rest. There’s nothing wrong with Dystopian novels but they bore me personally,
so I wrote something that I like and have had great reviews so far.
Would
you give us a paragraph or two from your book?
Bragg was at a loss.
A surge of rage boiled inside him. He clenched his fists as he stomped towards
Montrose. The President smiled before producing a strange and menacing gun from
inside his suit jacket. He pointed the sharp, angular, chrome barrel at Bragg.
“Ah, ah, ah, ahh. Back to the
Phoenix,” Montrose ordered gravely.
Bragg shook his head and regained
his momentum. As he closed the distance, Montrose pulled his trigger and a red
beam flickered in the air. Bragg looked down to see a small hole in his gray
shirt. He prodded at it with his finger. It had gone through the fabric and
into his flesh, next to his liver. Pain had not set in. Bragg vaulted himself
forward, landing one solid punch in Montrose’s fat face, knocking him to the
ground but Montrose did not drop his weapon. As Bragg lowered his bodyweight on
one knee to deliver a second a blow, Montrose shot him again, in the chest.
That time, Bragg felt incredibly hot
pain. His abdomen convulsed, causing him to fall over. Bragg clutched at his
heart. The laser had struck him in the sternum. Frightened, he tried to gasp
for air but was incapable. He flailed slightly as Montrose stood over him
“You were the only one capable of
accomplishing anything. A shame really,” Montrose said in a low voice.
Bragg started to cry as his life
ebbed away from him. All he had wanted was to be a good soldier.

Can
you tell me something about yourself?
I live in the north east of England with my husband. I have 4 novels on Amazon KDP, and will soon
be starting the 5th, a sequel to the 4th. I like to write about real life, everyday
situations; many of the characters and situations in my novels are taken from
those I have known, experienced or observed.
Of course, I embellish greatly, too!
What
inspired you to write?
Loving to read, I think.
Wanting, like CS Lewis said about The Chronicles of Narnia, to write the
books I want to read. I like reading
about love and loss and jealousy and obsession, lives that go down the pan then
build back up again, about the sort of people who live in my world, about the
idiosyncrasies of human nature, so these are the themes in my books. I wrote about 9 novels in the 1990s, too, in
the days before Kindles, laptops, etc!
Who
are you favourite authors?
I also love to read crime, psychological thrillers,
observational humour and well researched historical fiction – my favourite
authors are John Boyne, Douglas Kennedy, Kate Atkinson, Deborah Moggach, Susan
Howatch, Norah Lofts, Dorothy Parker, Evelyn Waugh, Bill Bryson – to name but a
few.
Can
you tell me something about your latest book?
I’d love to! I’m delighted
to say that it’s been very well received so far, with lots of excellent
reviews. It’s called ‘Dream On’, and
it’s about Dave Bentley, a small town guy with big rock ‘n’ roll dreams who
starts up his own rock band, Thor. He has an on-off relationship with Janice,
the mother of his son (Harley, David’s
son), and is passionately in love with a beautiful singer-songwriter called
Ariel.
Ariel has a friend called Melodie who is desperate to be ‘a
celebrity’; the two of them decide to enter a TV talent show, and Thor go
along, too. This event changes the lives
of all of them; one member of Thor even ends up on The Jeremy Kyle Show.
The novel is funny (there are several secondary characters
like Ritchie the misogynistic bass player, and barmy Glynis with her creative
workshop, who were great fun to write about), but it’s about relationships
and heartache, too – not least of all Janice’s pain at seeing her grandmother
deteriorate into the clutches of Alzheimer’s disease.
This
sounds really great... So how long did it take you to write it?
It took about three months to write the first draft, then
another very concentrated six weeks for the re-writing and editing.
Can
you tell us something about the writing process, do you have a set time for
writing, did you do any research or anything else of interest that was
involved?
As I’ve said, I write about what I know, which makes things
easier. But I asked a friend who had a
band in 2007/8 (the period in which ‘Dream On’ is set) exactly how a struggling
band would have tried to promote themselves then; my knowledge of such things
was a bit out of date. I was lucky when
it came to the TV talent show; my sister used to work for a satellite TV
station and, later, in the music business, and I have a friend who entered
Britain’s Got Talent! As for when I write – all the time I can, when
I’m writing a new novel. It comes before
watching television, reading, social life – and housework, to be honest!
What
do you think readers will come away with when they have finished your book?
A bit more knowledge about the lower echelons of the music
industry, ha ha! I hope it will make them laugh, and that they will have read
about people with whom they can identify; this is the factor that most people
love most about my books – that the characters and dialogue are so believable.
Would
you share a paragraph or two with us?
Here’s a bit about Dave’s fear that he’ll slink into a rock
‘n’ roll free zone of domesticity:
He couldn’t
just be a normal husband and dad, eventually getting his hair cut and swapping
his leather for some sort of casual jacket from Janice’s Littlewoods
catalogue. Taking his lost youth to the
pub, standing at the bar and telling the younger men that he used to play
guitar and ride a motorbike, too.
And when Ariel agrees to perform at nutty Glynis Took’s
creative workshop ‘open mic’ evening:
Jonah and
Paulus, who together made up Barred of Stratford on Avon, had just completed
their ‘hilarious and irreverent’ send-up of Hamlet, Twelfth Night and A
Midsummer Night’s Dream; this had been bad enough, but Glynis Tooke’s monologue
in which she ranted in a style more amateur than dramatic against her violent
husband was positively excruciating.
Ariel was up next; as she waited at the side of the stage she could see
Dave, Shane and Melodie laughing; oh dear, they’d started on another round of
drinks. Was she imagining it, or were
certain members of the rather earnest looking audience aiming disapproving
looks their way?
Many thanks for asking me to feature on your blog, Diane,
and I hope this interview has been of interest to your readers!
It
has been a real pleasure Terry, good luck with your writing!!
