**Author Peek** Interview with

BARBARA NICKLESS!

INTRODUCING…Barbara.

Before we get started talking about your writing, tell us a little about yourself, where you’re from, what you do for a living (if you’re not a full-time writer) what hobbies you have, etc. Whatever you’d like to share to introduce yourself.

I was made in Japan, born in Guam and now live in Colorado where my full-time job is serving as staff to my rescue cat, Angel. When I’m not tending to Angel’s every need, I love to hike, cave, read, play piano and cook. Oh, and write novels.

1. What appeals to you about the genre that you write?

I’m a terrible plotter. But with a dead body (or ten), I have a central problem around which to build my story.

2. Are you a plotter or a pantser (one who writes “by the seat of your pants”)?

Yes.
