1. If someone looked at your browsing history right now, what kind of things would we find? Hmm, probably a lot of marketing and research sites as well as Facebook and Goodreads. I fancy myself a workaholic, but you’d probably find some game sites on there as well. *snicker* I’m hopelessly hooked on Zuma!
2. If you could write about any subject that is near and dear to your heart, what would it be and why? I wish I knew more about travel and archeology. I’ve always wanted to be an archeologist. I think the history of humankind is fascinating. Finding broken pottery in the sand would be as exciting to me as finding a pirate’s buried booty. Travel goes hand in hand with archeology. I’d get to see all kinds of interesting places rich in history. Besides, the world needs a female Indiana Jones, don’t you think?
3. Do you have a favorite song, album, or playlist to write to? I’m a jazz fiend! No matter what I’m writing, jazz fits the bill. But for an adventurous scene, I like to switch over to Trans-Siberian Orchestra. For magical themes, I listen to Owl City. The song “Fireflies” rejuvenates my childhood sense of wonder.
4. What was the first thing you did after the debut of the first book you wrote? Tee-hee. We celebrated at Red Lobster. Cliché, I know. But my husband and I just love our seafood. We splurged shamefully, and made a point to tell everyone we came in contact with about my book. Aside from a few raised eyebrows, those strangers were genuinely excited for me.
Optional questions :)
Favorite Meal: That would have to be pasta and alfredo sauce. If you throw shrimp or scallops in there, I’ll never leave.
Favorite Drink (alcoholic/non-alcoholic) I don’t drink alcohol, but I’m a coffee junkie. I don’t care what kind, just keep it comin’!
Sweet or Salty snacks? I don’t care for sweets that often. I’d have to say salty potato chips.
All time favorite movie You mean I have to pick just one?? Okay, how about genre specific? Romance: “Somewhere in Time.” I named my daughter after the main character. Action: “Mr. and Mrs. Smith.” Comedy: “Robin Hood-Men in Tights.” I don’t care for scary movies. They give me nightmares.
Best book to movie adaption “Forest Gump.” But “Eat, Pray, Love” was pretty awesome too.
Worst book to movie adaption I hate to say it, but “The Hunger Games” really let me down. I think I just loved the books too much, my standards for the movie were impossibly high.
