Interview with Genevieve Jack, Author of The Dragon of Cecil Court

What can you tell us about your new release, The Dragon of Cecil Court?

Centuries ago, following a coup in their native realm of Paragon, eight royal dragon shifters fled to Earth to hide from the wrath of their murderous uncle. Over time and to reduce the possibility of detection, they spread out across Europe and the New World. The Treasure of Paragon series is a collection of stories about how each dragon finds their mates and their way home. Each book stands alone and tells the love story of one of the dragon siblings. Read in order, the series follows the siblings as they find each other again and reclaim their birthright.

The Dragon of Cecil Court follows Nathaniel and Clarissa’s story. When Clarissa's voice fails her during a show in London, it's an excuse to reconnect with ex-boyfriend and dragon Nathaniel, the man who remains her deepest regret. Nathaniel is reluctant to open old wounds but can't refuse Clarissa's plea for help or the passion her nearness awakens in him. Only as he closes in on breaking the curse, Nathaniel learns the cause of what ails her is tangled with the deadly Paragonian past he left behind.

Readers can get THE DRAGON OF CECIL COURT for $2.99 (reg. $4.99) until Sept 1st .

What or who inspired you to become an author?

I’d have to say my love of reading as a child. From my earliest memories, I recall thinking that writing fantasy novels would be the best job in the universe.

What's on your top 5 list for the best books you've ever read?

Ever? I couldn’t possible decide on just five individual books. But here are five recent series that are my favorites.

1. The Hidden Legacy Series by Ilona Andrews.
2. The Outlander Series by Diana Gabaldon
3. The Black Dagger Brotherhood series by JR Ward
4. A Court of Thorns and Roses Series by Sarah J. Maas
5. The Dark Carpathian Series by Christine Feehan

Say you're the host of a literary talk show. Who would be your first guest? What would you want to ask

I am fascinated by Ilona Andrews, the penname for a husband and wife writing team. I’d love to have both of them on my show to ask about their writing process. I think it might be difficult to work closely with a spouse, but their work is brilliant and seamless.

What's your favorite thing about writing?

My favorite thing about writing is the ability to share the characters in my head with others. For as long as I can remember, I’ve had stories playing inside my brain like movies in a theater built for one. And for a long time, I kept those stories to myself because I didn’t have on outlet for them. I wrote my first book while I was in nursing school and wasn’t sure anyone would ever read it. Those first supportive emails and reviews after publication were enough to hook me. There is absolutely no substitute for a fan discussing a malevolent queen, brooding hero, or sassy heroine of my creation as if they know them personally. The characters have always seemed real to me but it’s an amazing feeling when they become real to someone else.

What is a typical day like for you?

The magic starts with a cup of strong coffee. I’m a huge fan of the elixir of life. Afterward, I take care of my family and my dog, and usually start work around 9 am. Aside from breaks for lunch, dinner, and exercise, I usually work until around 9 pm. Work for me is a mixture of writing, editing, and/or publishing along with marketing my backlist. After 9, I’ll either spend time with family or read.

What scene from The Dragon of Cecil Court was your favorite to write?

There’s a scene where Clarissa is walking in Nathaniel’s orchard and comes across an orange tree that she gave him for his birthday ten years before. Orange trees don’t normally survive outdoors in his climate, so she knows he’s tended it with magic over the years to make it thrive the way it has. It’s at that moment that she realizes that he may still have feelings for her and the exchange that follows is one of my favorites.

Interview with Andrea Smith and Gina A. Jones, Authors of Wasted

What can you tell us about your new release, Wasted?

Andrea:

I am so excited about this book. First of all, it was so great to co-write this with one of my favorite authors, Gina A. Jones. Together, I feel as though we brought these characters to life. I could feel Emmett's pain and indecision; Gina wrote Olivia perfectly, a young woman who feels as though she's a nobody, and has built an emotional wall of protection. Emmett, much to Olivia's surprise, dismantles that wall through no intended effort, it is truly a mating of the souls.

Gina:

Wasted is a story of dreams that come with heartaches, love that is forbidden, and a mystery hidden inside the drama.

What or who inspired you to become an author?

Andrea:

I've always enjoyed writing and reading, but the real impetus behind my self-publishing was getting booted out of Corporate America in 2012. I cried for a solid week, and then began tapping away on my laptop as a means of distraction and therapy. Six weeks later, I had a 700+ pages novel! I had a lot to learn along the way, but being fired was a blessing in disguise!

Gina:

I think after listening to the audio of the Fifty Shades trilogy, I realized I wasn’t alone in my ideas and thoughts. I’ve always been a day dreamer and lived in my own head most of the time. Stories would fly around in my mind. This was when I decided to begin putting them down on paper. After I released my first trilogy, it was satisfying to have others read/hear my characters that lived inside me.

What's on your top 5 list for the best books you've ever read?

Andrea:

Shanna - by the late Kathleen Woodiwiss
Twilight Series - by Stephenie Meyer
Black Lies - by Alessandra Torre
Unteachable - by Leah Raeder
Love, Michael - by Gina A. Jones

Gina:

Daisy Jones & The Six by Taylor Jenkins Reed: A very different concept for storytelling through interviews.
This Man trilogy by Jodie Ellen Malpas: Looking back, it was a bit cheeky but I fell in love with the love that Ava and Jesse had for each other.
The Life We Bury by Alan Eskens: A heartbreaking story connecting a dying man in prison and a young college student through an essay.
Room by Emma Donoghue: A story told through the eyes of a young boy who never knew there was a world outside the small shed he was born in.
You by Caroline Kepnes: All in all, I was always rooting for Joe Goldberg, even though it was wrong to kill people. How an author can make you feel that way!

Say you're the host of a literary talk show. Who would be your first guest? What would you want to ask

Andrea:

My first guest would be Ruark Beauchamp, the MC from Shanna! And what I would ask him is . . . oh, I can't tell you - it's just soooo personal!!

Gina:

How novels with poor plot, lack of imagination and drama become so successful. But I realize it’s just another swamp.

What's your favorite thing about writing?

Andrea:

When I get to the point in a book where the characters take over and I'm simply a vessel for their story.

Gina:

To let your imagination run wild with no limits, and then connecting the impossible to make everything plausible is the challenge I live for when writing. To write the unexpected.

What is a typical day like for you?

Andrea:

Hunched over my laptop tapping away, with reruns of Ally McBeal playing on my television!

Gina:

Coffee, yoga, run, write. I’m also a narrator, so there are days I’m locked inside a closet talking to myself.

What scene from Wasted was your favorite to write?

Andrea:

The scene where the band has their first live concert in Seattle after the successful release of their first album! Olivia is a nervous wreck, the guys are all like 'no big deal.' but it turns out to be a HUGE deal!

Gina:

With all books I write, it’s the bringing it home and connecting all the dots or red herrings in a story. With Wasted, it was Olivia’s discovery of who she really was and a life she missed.

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

Andrea:

In God, all things are possible.

Gina:

You don’t quit when you’re tired or scared. You quit when you finish the job.

Interview with Michael Sunset, Author of A Mind is a Terrible Thing to Manipulate

What can you tell us about your new release, A Mind is a Terrible Thing to Manipulate?

A Mind is a Terrible Thing to Manipulate? The book is about my experience related to text book narcissistic abuse with my ex-spouse who I am currently coparenting with. It describes how a severe narcissist uses others to manipulate situations for personal gain and to hurt others without remorse. Through research and therapy, along with observing the text book behaviors I learned that there are Cluster B disorders in my family starting with my mother. I found it interesting that some members of my family would meet the criteria for one of these personality disorders and others don’t. It makes you wonder how much is genetic and how much is environmental. Regardless of the answer to that question my book details how to overcome severe gaslighting and smear campaigns from an ex-spouse and family members. My goal is to give readers the tools to persevere when it seems like everything is stacked against you.

What or who inspired you to become an author?

Reading Jackson McKenzie’s book Psychopath Free and learning best from hearing other people’s experiences overcoming narcissistic abuse inspired me to write the book.

What's on your top 5 list for the best books you've ever read?

Psychopath Free, Will I Ever Be Free If You, Splitting, Stop Walking On Egg Shells, and Dangerous Personalities. These books helped me assess my situation and the people in them accurately before returning to court to modify my custody plan. They helped me identify personality disorders in my ex-spouse, members of her family, and members of my own family. This way I knew my ex-wife had a personality disorder before it was confirmed through a psychological evaluation process. These books helped me make the decision to push to have both of us psychologically evaluated.

Say you're the host of a literary talk show. Who would be your first guest? What would you want to ask

My first guest would be Dr. Ramani Darvursala. I would ask her how she learned about Cluster B personality disorders and came to have such a passion for educating people about these disorders.

What's your favorite thing about writing?

I love writing because it’s therapeutic.

What is a typical day like for you?

Wake up at 6am, brush my teeth, shower, have a cup of coffee, and head to work to teach where I get to do what I love with great people. After work I relieve stress by working out, going for a jog, or taking my dog for a walk. On nice nights I will go out kayaking and watch the sunset. I like to read before bed or listen to a sleep meditation to wind down.

What scene from A Mind is a Terrible Thing to Manipulate was your favorite to write?

My favorite scene was discussing going back to court with a high conflict lawyer where I was faced with many false accusations. I enjoyed writing about this because I knew it was coming and I stayed calm knowing this was a reflection of my ex-spouse’s behavior and had nothing to do with me. It was a sign of how far I came in regards to learning about facing a Narcissist in court. This allowed me to be prepared to defend against it. To me there is no better feeling than putting in hard work and getting positive results. I knew when I was writing it many others would be able to relate to this and if they are in the difficult process of continuing to face false accusations they can learn to respond better. It felt good to know this scene would benefit many others in similar situations. I’m learning others are already benefiting from reading scenes such as this.

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

I’ve learned to push myself to reach my goals knowing other people aren’t going to it for me. I’ve also learned not to doubt or limit myself. I had many limiting beliefs prior to writing the book. Now I focus on the end result of where I want to be instead of the obstacles that are preventing me from getting there. I focus on what I’m grateful for everyday and what I can give to others.

Interview with Rachael Brownell, Author of Half Truths

What can you tell us about your new release, Half Truths?

Alex's and Harley's story is an emotional but witty slow-burn romance. Both of them are hiding who they really are from each other in the beginning and watching their relationship blossom and them grow as individuals is captivating.

What or who inspired you to become an author?

I've always loved to write. It was the only way I felt I could express myself when I was growing up. After my son started Kindergarten I found an old book I had written and it was horrible. I felt the characters needed their HEA so I rewrote the book for fun and everything manifested after that.

What's on your top 5 list for the best books you've ever read?

This is hard because I've read so many amazing books. I'd have to say my favorite is Taking Chances by Molly McAdams. It breaks me every time. To round out my top five I'd say anything by Nora Roberts, The Eagle Elite Series by Rachel Van Dyken, The Keatyn Chronicles by Jillian Dodd, and the Dating Games series by TK Leigh. All fantastic authors but also amazing women in this industry.

Say you're the host of a literary talk show. Who would be your first guest? What would you want to ask

Nora Roberts hands down. She's had amazing success over her career and been an inspiration to me. I'd probably ask her something stupid because I'd be tongue-tied but I'd love to know how she first got started. What inspired her.

What's your favorite thing about writing?

I love the "ah-ha" moments. The feeling I get when a story clicks. My characters don't always play nice with me. The 'voice' can be either demanding or silent. So when they're cooperating and things are flowing, it's the best feeling in the world and I savor those moments.

What is a typical day like for you?

It starts between six and seven o'clock in the morning, depending on how late I was up the night before. I consume a copious amount of coffee while checking social media and going over my to-do list for the day. I'm lucky enough to have a personal assistant so I check in with her and then once I'm fully wired from all my coffee I jump in and start writing until I have to start cooking. With my son being home for virtual schooling this fall I know my day will change slightly but he's self-sufficient so I'll still be able to write until dinner time most days.

What scene from Half Truths was your favorite to write?

Harley's son, Phoenix, is a big part of the story and any time I was able to write dialogue for him it made me smile. He's the same age as my son and the stuff that comes out of a pre-teen boy's mouth... let me just say it's not always what you expect. There's a specific scene where he calls Alex out for staring at Harley's butt that will make you laugh.

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

You know, for me it's all about waking up, putting a smile on my face, and doing my best every day. Some days are harder than others but there's this sign I normally keep on my desk (it's packed right now as we're building a house and preparing to move) but it basically says something along the lines of "Smile on my face. Big girl panties pulled up. Bring on the day."

Interview with Ryan Armstrong, Author of Oleander: Memories Are Deleted in Space

What can you tell us about your new release, Oleander: Memories Are Deleted in Space?

There is interstellar travel that leads to the discovery of aliens. You will find artificial intelligence, corruption, and violence in the novel. Oleander has a strong female lead, Emily. The core of the novel is based in science which is explained to the reader. The central theme is: our loved ones create feelings inside us that never go away, that last forever, even when memory fails us or is stolen from us.

What or who inspired you to become an author?

I have loved reading since I was a kid. I've always written poetry, and I eventually wanted to write a novel. Oleander is my fifth book. The catalyst for me writing a novel came from being upset about a specific situation and wishing it had turned out differently. I realized in writing books that I get to determine how things turn out.

What's on your top 5 list for the best books you've ever read?

1984 by George Orwell
Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury
The Road by Cormac McCarthy
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis
The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald

Say you're the host of a literary talk show. Who would be your first guest? What would you want to ask

I’d probably ask Cormac McCarthy onto the show. I would ask what he thinks is the greatest threat to human existence in the next fifty years.

What's your favorite thing about writing?

Holding a finished paperback in my hand. I also love it when I hear from readers through reviews or emails.

What is a typical day like for you?

Lately? Write. And I help with the kids while caring for my wife, who is ill. She always comes first.

What scene from Oleander: Memories Are Deleted in Space was your favorite to write?

The epilogue, last scene. It's short, but it captures the central theme of what the novel is trying to express.

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

I'm a Christian, but I write gritty fiction. Life isn't clean, neither are my books. As a Christian, I try to be sacrificial and put others first. When I succeed at doing this, I find I'm happier. I often fall short.

Interview with Bridget Barton, Author of How to Claim a Governess's Heart

What can you tell us about your new release, How to Claim a Governess's Heart?

If you like romances about unexpected love, then I am sure you're going to adore "How to Claim a Governess's Heart". It's a story about a loving governess and the second son of a noble family that fate brought them together, however, under challenging circumstances. I can't wait for readers to meet Bridget Thatcher and Lord John Hughan and stay with them during their magical love journey!

What or who inspired you to become an author?

My father used to read to me before I fell asleep. This has to be when I first fell in love with stories. But it was much later, in my teenage years, when I was encouraged by my friends to write after writing a short romance story and shared it with them.

What's on your top 5 list for the best books you've ever read?

I know that this question might be difficult for some people to answer, but I’m not one of those people! My top five is: “The Great Gatsby” by F.Scott Fitzgerald , “The Picture of Dorian Gray” by Oscar Wilde, “Persuasion” by Jane Austen, “Alice's Adventures in Wonderland” by Lewis Carroll and a collection of Poems by Edgar Allan Poe. These are all classics and I hold each one dear to my heart.

Say you're the host of a literary talk show. Who would be your first guest? What would you want to ask

I would really like to invite Joe Wright, director of Pride and Prejudice (2005). I would ask him how he felt approaching one of Jane Austin's best novels, what was the most challenging part about an adaptation, and which book he would like to adapt into a film in the future?

What's your favorite thing about writing?

The power of words and how something that I write from my heart and soul can really touch someone. It’s a wonderful feeling to receive messages from my readers saying they fell in love with a character or that my story made them happy!

What is a typical day like for you?

I'm an early bird, so I get up every day at 6:30 am. I always prepare a good breakfast for my family and me, and then I make a cup of tea and start working. The first thing I do is to reply to my readers' emails. It's one of my favorite parts about being an author! I usually write every day, but when I don't write, I love reading. I also enjoy cooking. I cook every single day, and I always listen to music while cooking. At night I try to sleep around 12, but when I have inspiration, I can stay up all night writing!

What scene from How to Claim a Governess's Heart was your favorite to write?

I think that in all my books the ending is my favorite scene because it gives you a feeling of satisfaction! In this story, I also love the ball scene, but I don't want to reveal more because you have to read the book!

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

I have always tried treating people as I would like to be treated. A little kindness and respect can go a long way!

Interview with Jenni Ogden, Author of The Moon is Missing

What can you tell us about your new release, The Moon is Missing?

It is a family drama, a book club read, a tale of family secrets and mother–daughter conflict set in London, New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina, and on a remote island off the coast of New Zealand. It draws on my knowledge of things medical and especially neurosurgery, my psychology training, three locations I am familiar with and love, and my own experience of being a mother of four. I was somewhat surprised when I discovered from reading the cover blurbs written by two superb authors that it was a domestic suspense! This is what they said:

“Jenni Ogden is a beautiful writer. In her newest, a tale of domestic suspense, Ogden tells the story of a neurosurgeon bedeviled by her own sophisticated brain and the memories of a long-ago tragedy that still has the power to destroy her and her family. Pick up The Moon is Missing. You won’t put it down.”— Jacquelyn Mitchard, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Deep End of the Ocean, the book that began Oprah’s Book Club.

"With gripping scenes set during Hurricane Katrina and on a remote New Zealand island, this tightly-woven family drama—fueled by long-buried secrets and a daughter’s desperate need to answer the question, ‘Who am I?’ —is ripe for book club discussion." —Barbara Claypole White, bestselling author of A Perfect Son

What or who inspired you to become an author?

Before I wrote fiction I was a clinical psychologist and neuropsychologist and published non-fiction books of cases of my own patients (Fractured Minds and Trouble in Mind, similar to the cases of Oliver Sacks). These have been long-time best sellers for me and I believe their popularity as college textbooks as well as for the general reader is due to the real-life stories and the emotional connection the reader forms with the patients and their families. This emotional connection, of course, is why we read fiction. I have always been an avid reader of fiction and wanted to have a go at that, so I retired from my university position early, moved with my husband to a spectacular off-grid island off the coast of New Zealand, and begun the long and involving journey that is writing fiction. My debut novel, A Drop in the Ocean, turned out to be a success, won four awards including the Nautilus Award for Fiction, Large Publisher (won most recently by Barbara Kingsolver), and has sold over 80,000 copies. Since then I have completed three more novels, one currently in the bottom drawer(!), one which I hope will be published in 2021, and my current new release, The Moon is Missing.

What's on your top 5 list for the best books you've ever read?

Good grief, impossible to choose five… and of course there are always those childhood favorites to include! In many cases authors rather than specific books are easier…

Those authors no longer writing (ie: no longer in this world)! Rumer Godden (China Court, In this House of Brede), Emily Bronte (Wuthering Heights), P.D. James (her Adam Dalgheish seres), L.M. Montgomery (Anne of Green Gables), Gene Stratton-Porter (Freckles), Gerald Durrell (all his books), Oliver Sacks, Pat Conroy, Rosamunde Pilcher (Coming Home), Bryce Courtenay (The Power of One), Colleen McCulloch (The Thorn Birds).

Best books I’ve read in the last few years: The Splendid and the Vile: A Saga of Churchill, Family and Defiance during the Blitz, by Erik Larson, Richard North Patterson (all his books), Lionel Shriver, Ann Patchett, Barbara Kingsolver, Anna Quindlen (especially One True Thing), Chris Cleave (Everyone Brave is Forgiven), Colson Whitehead (The Underground Railroad), Sebastian Faulks (all his books).

Say you're the host of a literary talk show. Who would be your first guest? What would you want to ask

Sebastian Faulks. He is a superb writer, a giant intellect, an engaging speaker and a very charming man! I think I would begin by asking him: “You write so many different types of books, from satire to drama, novels set in the World Wars, and even a James Bond novel, ‘impersonating’ the writing style of Ian Fleming. Which of all your novels is the one you consider your best, and why; which was the hardest to write, and why; and which, if any, do you now wish had never seen the light of day?

What's your favorite thing about writing?

Being able to enter a world I am fascinated by (and perhaps could never experience in real life), and being able to spend a year or longer immersed in it (and not feel guilty about leaving the vacuuming for another day!)

What is a typical day like for you?

Avoiding vacuuming. Also depends on whether I have a book coming out (like now!) or I’m revising, or writing a new book. Marketing does rather take precedence around a new release, which can be fun, but outside of that, I write most days for varying periods depending on how sunny it is and whether the sea is inviting or I have a good book (by someone else) I can’t put down. I don’t rise at dawn to write, but usually write during the day, and read or watch Netflix in the evenings. I consider the hours (and hours) I spend on the beach also part of my writing time as that’s when I dream up characters and scenes and plot twists… Our very spectacular beach is a few minutes walk from our house, and usually, I am the only person on it. And yes, I know how lucky I am!

What scene from The Moon is Missing was your favorite to write?

I can’t think of a specific scene but Part Two, set during Hurricane Katrina, is my favorite part, and everyone who has so far read the book, whether an editor or a reviewer, has said they were gripped by that part and couldn’t tell it from real-life stories of Katrina. I did a lot of research for this section, as although I have been to New Orleans many times, I wasn’t there during Hurricane Katrina. It is interesting to me that that section wrote itself once I’d done the research, and I have changed nothing major in that part since the first draft, unlike the rest of the book which has had major revisions.

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

I am the eternal optimist, and I tend to like almost everyone and trust people I have formed a relationship with (including students I taught, trades-people who have worked for me, as well as acquaintances, colleagues, friends, and family). I have rarely been disappointed. I think that New Zealand’s ‘motto’ during these COVID times is a good one: “Be safe and be kind.” And to that I add “and you will be more likely to be happy.”

Interview with Lauren Blakely, author of A Guy Walks Into My Bar

What can you tell us about your new release, A Guy Walks Into My Bar?

A Guy Walks Into My Bar is my first MM release and I loved writing it! It's a passionate, fun, irresistible romance with two very sexy heroes! I hope that readers enjoy the epic love story!

Which books would we be surprised to find on your shelves?

You might be surprised to find I don't have any books on my shelves! Everything I read is digital or it is an audiobook that I listen to! But you might be surprised to find in my audio library a lot of memoirs from comedians, fun how-to books, and the occasional historical romance.

Where is your happy place? Why does it bring you joy?

My happy place is with my family and my dogs! I have two teenagers who are wonderful, thoughtful young adults and I love having great conversations with them. And my dogs are simply great companions and friends.

BAM. You're a superhero. What's your superpower?

My superpower would be the ability to apparate! It would be fantastic to never have to get on a plane again! I would love to just disappear and appear in a new place like that.

What scene in A Guy Walks Into My Bar was your favorite to write?

That's a tough question! I really loved writing all of the book! I think some of my favorite scenes though are the heartfelt emotional ones such as when the hockey hero realizes he's falling ridiculously hard for the sexy bartender and he has to go to his place and tell him that.
