My immediate response to "If you could talk with any author, who would it be?" is that I want to ask authors who died with books unfinished how they intended to end them (especially Dorothy L. Sayers' Thrones, Dominations and Charles Dickens' The Mystery of Edwin Drood), but I don't know how you could do that on AuthorFeast, short of a seance!So here are some favorite authors who are very much alive:
Christopher Castellani, author of All This Talk of Love, The Saint of Lost Things, and A Kiss from Maddalena: Is there three times the post-partum feeling when you finish writing a trilogy that there is when you finish a novel?
Edward Schwarzschild, author of The Family Diamond and Responsible Men: What is it about the oldies that so draws you to write about them?
Eric Luper, author of Seth Baumgartner's Love Manifesto, Bug Boy, and Big Slick: Do you have a favorite age to write for/about, in the same way that teachers have a favorite grade to teach?
Anne E. Johnson, author of Green Light Delivery, Ebenezer's Locker, and Trouble at the Scriptorium: Do you like writing in different genres (sci-fi, historical fiction) for the contrast, or do you find they have a lot in common?
Allison Wortche, author of Rosie Sprout's Time to Shine: How do you juggle wearing both hats as a children's book editor and children's book author?
Janie Downey Maxwell, author of Gunny Malone: What are your top tips for other e-authors?
Michelle Chalfoun, author of The Width of the Sea and Roustabout: I heard a rumor that you've given up writing--is this true?

I'll get started in pursuing them. We'll see how many I can get. *fingers crossed*
I want to talk with him about his book: Author Publisher Entrepreneur.
I will find him and if he'll let me, I'll interview him and link below.
I'd just ask him what advice he has to self publish, and how the industry has changed.
