Stacey Wallace Benefiel has been sweet enough to stop by and answer some questions about her debut novel, Glimpse. Let me tell you my friends, review coming tomorrow and you need to be here. Her book is great! She needs all the love she can get to spread Glimpse fever so let’s get to it! 1) Quick challenge: Describe Glimpse in one sentence without using “a” or “the”.

An Interview with Allan Richard Shickman
As I mentioned yesterday, I was privileged enough to be asked to read the Zan-Gah books for Allan Richard Shickman, and they were very good! Today he has agreed to stop by for an interview! Enjoy! 1. Where did the idea for a Prehistoric Fiction series come from? Sometimes it is hard to know where ideas are born, but it seems to me the Zan-Gah books began with geography. A change in geography is good for an artist or author because he sees things with “fresh eyes,” and what might be ignored by a long-time resident can be dramatically new to a visitor.…

An Interview with Adele Griffin and Lisa Brown
For me, one of the best parts about hosting this blog is all the amazing people I have to opportunity to get to know. Especially when those people are amazing authors and illustrators! (Photo Credit) This week I was lucky enough to interview the fabulous (and extremely witty) Adele Griffin and Lisa Brown of Picture the Dead. These two talented ladies collaborated on this book. Adele is the author and Lisa is the illustrator! They’re both brilliant really, but you’ll see what I mean when you read this book. (Yes WHEN.) It’s a must read! You’ll find my review here…

An Interview with Alan Tucker
Alan is the debut author of A Measure of Disorder which is a fantastic fantasy novel! (You can find my review here.) Buy a digital copy at Smashwords, or bound copy at Amazon.com! 1) What inspired you to write A Measure of Disorder? I have written things, here and there, all my life. Poems, short stories, etc. but I had never finished a novel. I’d started many through the years, but could never pull together a complete effort. I either had a great beginning with no ending, or vice versa. Last summer, my younger daughter (the one that still lives at home…

An Interview with Kersten Hamilton
Kersten Hamilton was born in High Rolls, New Mexico. From the time she was 6 years old, she knew she wanted to be a writer, a poet in particular. She wanted to make word magic and tuck it inside the covers of a book. During her exciting childhood, she accompanied her parents as they tracked caribou and arctic wolves across their homestead in Alaska, caught tree frogs in the swamps of the Pacific Northwest and chased dust devils and rattlesnakes in the desert of New Mexico. Before settling down to have her own children, she worked as a ranch hand…
