3Q’s – Ronald McGillvray goes from Pa... Book Review: The Road by Cormac McCarthy

3Q’s – Kyra R. Torres is completely TASTELESS!

3Q2

How ridiculous are my ‘click-bait’ headlines? Just brutal and I feel ashamed with how sad some of them truly are hahahah! Like today’s! Kyra would probably punch me in the shoulder if she was in the same room as me for how lame of an attempt this was.

BUT…. it does mean a new guest and a new author is here for a neeeeeewwwwwwwwww 3Q’s!

Today’s guest is a fun one!

Please welcome, Kyra!

Kyra Torres

Steve: What does your writing time look like? Do you try to write at the same time each day? Do you have a word count you attempt to hit?
KT: I tend to usually write in the morning for a few hours when I have some alone, quiet time. I don’t have a specific time of day I try to write at, I just take whatever I can find. I’d love to say that I have this set writing goal I try to meet daily, but the truth is that I’m such a mood writer it’s impossible to make that happen! Some days the words are pouring out of me and others I’m lucky to get a few sentences.

Steve: If you started a series and for some reason had to have another author finish it, who would you choose?

KT: Rayne King. When I got back into writing and discovered the indie community, the first book I read was, “The Creek” by King and it was my introduction back into reading/writing grief in horror. I’m a big fan and he’s a good friend. I know he’d be a good author to finish what I started.

Steve: Tell me about your newest release (novel/story/poem/novella) and why someone should read it!
KT: Tasteless is a sort of horror comedy that takes place surrounding the pandemic and will have you reliving what I’m sure we’ll never forget. It’s very relatable for a lot of us, but hopefully these are symptoms you’ve never experienced!

Steve: Bonus Question! If they made a movie about your life, what actor or actress would you suggest they get to play you?

KT: Easy, Kat Dennings!
