Not sure if it was purposeful, but I did write this book while sitting outside mostly.

Interview with Raven Gulley, Author of The Devil's Farm

What's the story behind the story? What inspired you to write The Devil's Farm?

I've been writing seriously on and off for the past decade. One day Joey showed up in my head and I knew it was time to write his story! I am also a huge fan of zombie horror movies and tv shows.

What's your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?

It depends on my mood entirely. Sometimes I like contemporary romance and other times straight out horror!

What books are on your TBR pile right now?

There are so many books out there I would love to read. Unfortunately, I can't read right now because I'm under so many deadlines.

What scene in your book was your favorite to write?

I loved writing the scene when Ava and Joey first meet.

Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)

My favorite place to write is on the couch. If I'm having a hard time focusing I like to sit at a desk!

Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?

Always go after your dreams and do things that make you happy.

If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?

Nothing about this life is guaranteed. Everything can change in the blink of an eye!

Interview with Carol T. Luna, Author of The Left-Hand Man

What's the story behind the story? What inspired you to write The Left-Hand Man?

This story was written for three reasons: because I wanted to write a YA series where protagonists were led by credible but foible adults; to explore a what-if, if humans could encode memories into our DNA; and because writing really is cheaper than therapy.

What's your favorite genre to read? Is it the same as your favorite genre to write?

I write what I love to read. Science fiction and fantasy all the way!

What books are on your TBR pile right now?

I read several books at once. At the moment, I’m going through Writing Tools by Roy Peter Clark and The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula K. Le Guin.

What scene in your book was your favorite to write?

The confession scene between Nate, a leader with a heaping of imposter syndrome, and the protagonist, the socially awkward, but well-meaning, Ao. I’ve always loved writing the scenes where both are together but it culminates in a warm scene with lots of vulnerability.

Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)

I have a mug with a badly drawn cat holding up two middle fingers with the words, I DO WHAT I WANT. Crude, but it makes me laugh, and it’s a salve for when I feel low.

Do you have a motto, quote, or philosophy you live by?

In the story, Nate says, “You are a person, and because you are a person, you have a story, which is always worth listening to.” At the time of writing it, I thought it was just a good sounding line, but it’s stuck with me since. Now, I try to listen to everyone whom I meet because compassion and patience open doors. While I can’t do it for everyone I meet, I try my best every day.

If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?

Human connection is what makes life worth living.
