Hey miss! Have a new series starting next week which I am calling a "county girl paranormal". I'd love to take part in an interview and talk about the new series, or really, anything! If you need an idea of what I'm all about please check out http://www.RMGilmoreAuthor.com Here you can get the skinny on the Dylan Hart Odyssey of The Occult series AND the shiny new Lynnie Russell Trilogy!
Thanks for the opportunity doll! Look forward to working with you.
Cheers

HACK will hit the virtual shelves any day now, so I'll complete the interview and let you know when the book is live. I will also have a blog in Huffington Post Books very soon that I'm sure your readers will find intriguing. I was invited based on this post in my blog, Adventures in Limboland: http://bit.ly/nxMHzT. Also happy to promote The Chompasaurus!
I'd be happy to, Annie. You can reach me at Natalie@NatalieNicoleGilbert.com.

Hi Annie! Great idea and I've done author interviews before, but I have a couple of questions:1) If we write under different pen names (for different genres) do we need to do more than one interview or can we combined them?
2) Do you want us to answer all 34 questions? It would be a very long interview! Or do we just answer a few of them we feel most apply to our writing?
Thanks! Cindy aka Celine Chatillon/Cynthianna

To answer your questions....
If you'd like to combine your aliases into one interview, that's perfectly fine with me.
And aaaahh no. Just answer between 6 and 10 questions and send those to me. You can either pick and choose which ones you like the best or follow the steps I made up to get a random(er) list of questions. :)
Thanks for the clarifications. I'll put it on my to-do list! :)
Celine wrote: "Thanks for the clarifications. I'll put it on my to-do list! :)"Looking forward to it. :)
Sounds fun,I'm a new author and would love to participate.
Hi Annie, Thank you for the opportunity. How long can each question be? How many words do you want to keep it under? Thanks!
Hi Annie! Your site looks great! I'll definitely be looking over the list of questions and contacting you soon. Thanks!
Michelle wrote: "Hi Annie, Thank you for the opportunity. How long can each question be? How many words do you want to keep it under? Thanks!"I don't have a cap per se, but please try to keep the answers a reasonable length. I definitely want them to have some substance to them, but let's say something like keep each answer under 600 words?

I'm interested in doing an interview. 
Thanks for the opportunity. I like the way you included the deciphering technique to choose the questions.
Cynthia wrote: "Thanks for the opportunity. I like the way you included the deciphering technique to choose the questions."Haha, I know some people prefer to have random questions thrown at them and some prefer to pick and choose, so this gives both people something that they'll be happy with. :)
Hi AnnieInteresting and different approach - I've emailed you with my answers, thanks for the opportunity!

Thank you! :)
I do try to help all of the authors that contact me for advice/support.
I know that my responses are a bit slow and I do apologize! If any of you would like to flaunt your skills, I am doing a writing contest. I do believe very strongly in giving authors every opportunity to shine for readers. :)
Jenelle wrote: "Hey Annie, just sent you my email and answers. Thanks for the opportunity! Love your questions and the numbering device, super fun!"Lol! I was hoping the numbering system would be fun. I wanted it to be a cute little thing and am glad that it's not earning all kinds of eye rolls.
