Wanted: Authors for fun blog interview series

[[deleted user]]

I am doing a series of interviews that I will post on my blog during the convention. They will be unique in that instead of the authors answering the questions, the authors will answer the questions in the guise of an inanimate object.

The questions will be about your writing and the book of your choice, but written as if you are the object in question (which you will get to choose). The interviewer will be my fictional character, Car Johnson.

I did a series back for authors in a writing contest and have some links for examples of what I mean:

If you are interested, send me a message at rebekahlora@gmail.com with your choice of object, link to the book you want the interview to focus on plus a summary of the plot, a short bio paragraph about you and your writing, any personal and social media links you want included, and up to two photos to include.

I will send you a list of questions tailored to your chosen object and your book.


Thanks,
Rebekah

Sounds fun! Sent you an email.

[Lenita]

What a creative idea! I sent you an email.

Thank you for your interest and emails. I have replied to you both with your interview questions.

[Angela]

Love this! If I have time, I'll send you an email! So, Yes!

[Rebecca]

I love this idea. As soon as I settle on an object, I'll send you an email.

[Angela]

What objects do we have so far? I don't want to repeat.

I went with a sword, which goes with my book. Since it's set on another planet, many everyday things would seem strange.

[Lenita]

My book is about a gauntlet, so, obviously, the gauntlet was the natural choice.

So far, there's a sword, a gauntlet and a bandolier.

I have had fun coming up with the questions for everyone's items. :)

If you're still taking submissions, I'd love to be included. I'll send you an email with my information this evening (at least, in evening EST). :-)

I look forward to reading it. :)

Sounds fun. I think I know precisely the book for this, if you're still taking submissions.

Yes, I am. :) Go ahead and send the information over.

Brilliant idea and so funny! If you're still taking submissions, my sister (debuting sister team!) and I would love to do this!

That's fine. :) You can have the interview focus on a book you haven't published yet, or any shorter work you've written.
