I’m starting a new feature on my blog. Each Friday, I’ll post an author interview. I plan to run this special posting until August 31, 2012. If I like it, I’ll keep it; if I find it takes up too much time, or is not working the way I hoped it would work, I’ll discontinue it.
Writers can participate in this author interview if…
a) they have published at least one book regardless of how it was published (traditional or independently)
b) they are published in fantasy, mystery, science fiction, romance, horror, contemporary, etc.
NOTE: I am not interested in interviewing authors who publish erotica. At the moment, I’d like to focus on fiction only.
I hope the writer interviews accomplish two things:
1) Readers discover new writers and new books.
2) Writers get to showcase themselves and their books.
Writers interested in being interviewed are asked to complete the following questions and send them to me—Diane—at tibert@live.com
The Interview
Name:
Do you write with a pen name? If so, what is it?
In which country were you born, and which one do you live in now?
Which genres do you write in?

What is the title of the first novel you had published?
What is the title of your most current published novel?
What is the working title of the next book you plan to publish?
Do you read hard cover, paper books, ebooks or audio? Or a mixture?
If you could be a character from a book, who would you choose?
What is the first 300 words in your latest novel (ending with a period)?
Who is your favourite character in this most recently book?
The questions from a to l are for your main character in your most recently published novel:
a) Name:

d) Where were you born?
e) What is your favourite colour?

Now, back to you. A few quick questions:

What a wonderful idea. I have sent you my answers. You are a very busy person.
Thanks, Darlene. Your answers were received.
Great idea Diane. I’ll be in touch.
Great, Yvonne. I look forward to hearing from you.
This sounds like a great feature, and those are some great questions. You’ve made me wonder about my main character’s favourite flavour of ice cream…
I look forward to reading interviews and perhaps finding new authors and books to read. 🙂
Thanks, Libby. I love ice cream and there aren’t many flavours I won’t eat.
