Author Caitlin Kittredge Interview and Book Contest LIVE Here!

The Mirrored Shard: The Iron Codex Book Three by Caitlin KittredgeBBB: Tell us 3 things not in your bio we don’t know about you that might make us leery of befriending you. LOL

CK: Just three? Kidding. Okay…I have an almost encyclopedic knowledge of serial killers and their victims due to reading through every Stephen King book in the library when I was a kid and moving on to true crime. Let’s see…I hate most pop music but am compelled to sing along when Taylor Swift is on the radio. And if you’re allergic to cats, I have six, so we probably won’t work out.

Shadow of Time by Jen MinkmanBBB: Tell us 3 things not in your bio we don’t know about you that might make us leery of befriending you. LOL

JM: Hmm. I really like death metal. To some people, that might give the impression I am a very dark and mentally unstable person, but I assure you, that’s not the case! Also, I tend to fall for younger guys - in fact, my husband is 11 years younger than I am. Somehow, I don’t fit into my own age group; Read More »

BBB: Tell us 3 things not in your bio we don’t know about you that might make us leery of befriending you. LOL

LJ: I believe in all sorts of strange things! I really do believe that there is too much evidence of faeries, Sasquatches and aliens to discount them as figments of our imaginations, only! I also think that people who read are the most open-minded and intelligent people on the planet. People who are not afraid of exploring new frontiers… Read More »

BBB: Tell us 3 things not in your bio we don’t know about you that might make us leery of befriending you. LOL

SJ: Weeell, if you really want to be freaked out right off the bat…I also work in the world of costumes and design, so I handle a lot of different materials and have gotten pretty good at making synthetic human skin out of latex. I try to hide my elitist geek side, Read More »

TMS: Hmm. I’m really a harmless person. Let’s see….okay. I play World of Warcraft. I’m obsessed with it. I also have a pair of dragons tattooed on the backs of my shoulders. I also put Ketchup on my scrambled eggs. You shaking in your boots yet?

The Trouble with Fate: A Mystwalker Novel by Leigh EvansBBB: Tell us 3 things not in your bio we don’t know about you that might make us leery of befriending you. LOL

LE:
#1 When I first began speaking, everything I said was flavoured with a strong Bostonian accent. Which is weird, as I was born in the French Canadian province of Quebec. Can we spell s-p-o-o-k-y?
#2 I’m a marksmen. Give me a elastic band and a monitor, and I’ll nail that thing. One shot. Done.
#3 I’m a speed demon. Don’t get in my way.

Gilded: The St. Croix Chronicles by Karina CoooperCherry St. Croix, the Mad Doctor’s Daughter

When I sit down to write a book, one of the things that strike me—usually while doing other things, like the dishes, or showering, or some other mindless task—is what a character feels or has to say about this concept or that fact. Sometimes, a whole, verbose lecture will form in my head, and this is often the case with Cherry St. Croix, the heroine—and much beleaguered Society miss—in Tarnished and Gilded.

BBB: Tell us 3 things not in your bio we don’t know about you that might make us leery of befriending you. LOL

LC: 1. I was afraid of dogs when I was younger, but had a pet snake. ;)
2. You don’t ever want to watch a scary movie with me. I’ll be terrified and force you to sit with me to watch comedies until my heartbeat stops racing.
3. I’m a former Marine. But don’t worry, a very petite one who doesn’t look intimidating at all. ;)

Awakening the Fire (Guardian Witch) by Ally ShieldsMany thanks to Bitten By Books for inviting me to visit today and introduce my Guardian Witch series. Since meeting my 23-year-old witch seemed like a logical first step, I tracked her down at the Magic Hall, where she reports to her bosses.

“Wow, this is more impressive than I imagined!” I said, looking around. Even though I had written about the stone hall in my books, it’s imposing thirteenth century style took me by surprise. It was gothic looking.

Hellsbane (A Hellsbane Book) by Paige CuccaroBBB: Tell us 3 things not in your bio we don’t know about you that might make us leery of befriending you. LOL

PC: I’m shy/ insecure – people who’ve met me may laugh at that, but people who really know me, KNOW it’s true. I know how to pretend to be outgoing, but it’s really hard for me. The whole time I’m talking to new people I’m secretly terrified they’ll realize that… I’m secretly terrified.

BBB: Tell us 3 things not in your bio we don’t know about you that might make us leery of befriending you. LOL

SG: Ha! I think everyone is leery of being my friend in the beginning anyway. I am socially awkward in person, especially around strangers, so there are always uncomfortable silences, and I tend to say things that I wish I hadn’t. Conversely, I think I am super cool on Facebook, so if you want to meet me, meet me there! Read More »

Author Pamela Palmer Interview and Kindle Paper White Contest

BBB: How old were you when you began writing, and what was the first piece you ever wrote?

PP: The first time I ever tried to write, I was a few years out of college. I wrote the first chapter of a romantic suspense set in Washington, D.C. about a whistle blower. I rarely talk about this writing attempt because it came to an abrupt end when I had no idea what to do with chapter two. I had no concept of story structure and decided I must not have any talent because a real writer would know what came next. Read More »
