Hi Mercedes, I would love to be interviewed. I do interviews myself on my blog, and I'm always looking for unusual stories to go with the author I'm promoting. Right now I'm working on an interview with an author and (former) female Marine who fell in love with her interpreter while stationed in Afghanistan, and all the gut-wrenching trials she had to go through as a result. If you're interested in interviewing her, or me, let me know. You can view my trailer for my most recent book at www.lindaberry.net.

Glad to see you're back and willing to provide this valuable service to authors!

I have published two crime thrillers, D*E*D Dead and Ded Reckoning: Vengeance Takes a Road Trip. I have done a couple interviews, and have really enjoyed the experience.

Thanks again for this opportunity, and I wish you well.

I have a new digital book out from Crossroad Press. It's part of Crossroad's ongoing O.C.L.T. series of stand-alone titles - a Lovecraftian tale that involves a search for secret history amid Irish ruins. Happy to do interviews on the tale. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XFGKPF1/

Hello Mercedes,
I'd love to be interviewed. I'm a science fiction, fantasy, and romance author. Here is the link to my latest novel. "Kissing the Intern: A Multicultural Romance"

Let me know what you think.

[Paul]

Sounds good. My current novel is in the Epic Fantasy genre. Let me know what questions you have.

Hello Mercedes,
Message sent. I have published one multiple-award-winning sf/speculative fiction novel and am about to publish a second. Thank you for opening this thread again.

I would be keen if it's not too late to put my name forward. I'm a New Zealand based author if that's of any interest. I have four novels out - and here's a link to my website for more information. www.keithasmith.co.nz

[Kathleen]

I have three books on Amazon, also a novella and a volume of poetry. I write from my experiences being an Army wife and newspaper reporter. I have a women's fiction, a memoir, and a mystery with spiritual overtones. Would love the exposure. How encouraging of you to do this for us struggling authors.

This sounds great, Mercedes. I would be interested. I write scifi and horror. I've got a book about training dogs to track zombies.

Hello Mercedes: If you're still open for business I would like to be added to your growing list. I'm a new author of the e-book sort, if that doesn't disqualify me, then I would appreciate your consideration. I'm not sure how one would rate my genre, I call them short stories written in verse, and sometimes call them songs, I might need an outside source to be the judge of that some day. Anyway I've published 3 of them with Kindle this year. There again it's your call to decide if I qualify as an author.
Thank You Robert

Dear Mercedes,
What a great thing to do!
I'm a new author and my debut novel came out at the end of August. It's called The Artist's Muse and it is historical fiction. I've got a website ( https://theartistsmuseblog.wordpress....) and you can see reviews either here on Goodreads or on Amazon
( https://www.amazon.co.uk/Artists-Muse... ). I'm currently working on my second novel. I would really love to be interviewed if you have the time.
I look forward to hearing from you soon,
Kerry

[Vicky]

Thanks Mercedes. I'm interested in an interview if you have the time and space.
I write historical fiction set in New Zealand about the ordinary immigrants who came to this country for a better life set amid the history of the late Victorian era.

All these wonderful responses! I better wait until I'm ready to start my podcast before I ask if anyone wants to be interviewed on it.

[James]

I am interested in an interview when you are ready. My e-mail is : jamesbest1864@outlook.com

I look forward to hearing from you.

[Jeffrey]

Have never received a follow up from this site.

[Karl]

I think it's a hoax. Jeffrey. I don't know why Goodreads keeps posting it.

[Carole]

If anyone is interested, I am a partner in both a blog radio show and a monthly magazine- If anyone want to contribute and write an article- we are always looking for content- you can put up your links.

We do interviews on the radio show as well- so PM me if you are interested.

I don't know what this means. Mercedes did an interview with me. I appreciated the time she took on the interview.

Best to all,
Avery

I never received a reply either?

I agree, Daisy. I would love to guest on your site. Let me know what you want me to do and then I can tweet it out to my followers. :)

[Daisy]

Wow Avery that''s great! What is your book website so I can look at it? Mine is www.datingdaisy.net.Maybe I can write for yours? I need to think about what to suggest. Can you email me at daisy.sharer@gmail.com?
Sure we can do this. How exciting! Daisy

[Rita]

Mercedes' blog certainly exists - I've been interviewed by her too. I think she has just overlooked a couple of interested authors.

Daisy, I'd be interested in a guest spot and am happy to offer anyone who is interested a guest author spot on mine - www.ritaleechapman.com. You can contact me through the website if you are interested.

[Daisy]

Hi everyone this is so fab! I will try and contact those of you who want to do this through your websites. But please feel free to email me at daisy.sharer@gmail.com.
Each of you needs a specific brief so I will look at the websites and see what I can come up with. I am a bit tied up today but I'll do this asap no worries. Guest posts are thought to be a good way to promote books. Look forward to the project. Daisy x

FWIW and not to steal anyone else's thunder - Want to me interviewed (by me)?

[Faith]

Joseph and Daisy, you have both completely hijacked the thread of the original poster. Not the way to be supportive of other authors or bloggers. It's just rude.

This has happened in at least one other thread about doing interviews with authors. It's unnerving and, as you say, kinda rude.

[A.]

Hello everyone, it's nice to meet you all. I have done interviews online and a few in person. If interested please find below a little information about me and my work at:

https://unholypursuit.wordpress.com/2...

My debut novel "UnHoly Pursuit: The Devil on My Trail" was published by Muses' Port in 2016. I look forward to getting know you all and always welcome any questions. Thanks for taking time to read this. Have a nice holiday season.

Faith and Eileen, my apologies. I had no intention of being rude or hijacking the thread.

This thread seemed to be about doing interviews hence my posting here. It's along the lines of "why do burger joints build next to other burger joints? Because that's where burger eaters are." Or "Why do you rob banks? Because that's where the money is."

Probably more in keeping with authors and marketing, if you're selling an off-world sf novel, do you use "holiday cooking" as one of your keywords?

Anyway, my goal was to add to the conversation by offering an additional interview outlet, not offend those reading the thread. People can do all interviews and I hope they do! Cross-pollination and all that.

Eileen and Faith, I'm not quite sure what you are saying here. What is rude about what Joseph and Faith are doing? I'm participating with both of them and have found it a great experience. Can you clarify? Thanks.

Read the first post in this thread. It is for a specific blogger who is willing to promote other authors by doing interviews. For other bloggers to suddenly jump in and try to siphon off potential interviewees is hijacking the thread. They should start their own threads.
