A Conversation with Archer Kay Leah, Author of FATE IN SUSPENSION (with a giveaway!)

Published by beckymmoe on 09/16/2022

Thanks so much for agreeing to be with us today, Archer! Thanks so much for having me, Becky! It’s great to be here. What 5 things should readers know about you? I *LOVE* fantasy and science fiction, so all of my stories tend to be on the side of these (sometimes at the same time!), though I love putting the romantic spin on them with a focus on LGBTQA+ characters. I also write poetry. Behaviour, psychology, and ecology are some of my favourite things! That’s probably why I push my characters’ buttons just to see how far they’ll go and…

A Conversation with Michelle Gross, Author of HEARTBEAT GIRL (with a giveaway!)

Published by beckymmoe on 12/10/2021

Thanks so much for agreeing to be with us today, Michelle! Thanks for having me! What 5 things should readers know about you? Hmm. Questions about myself are always the hardest because I feel like I don’t have anything interesting to say about me, but here goes. I’m a mom to twin girls. And autism mom. I write the best at night. Sometimes, I can write a book in weeks while others can take months. The editing process takes months, regardless. I have this irrational fear that I’ll never write all the books I want before dying. So much inspiration…

Q&A and Giveaway with Bestselling Author Jamie Beck, Author of IF YOU MUST KNOW by Jamie Beck (Potomac Point #1)

Published by beckymmoe on 06/01/2020

How do you describe your newest novel If You Must Know? This book is a “beach book” in the best sense. It’s not angsty, yet it has a page-turning plot and a bunch of interesting, relatable characters. I think it’s entertaining and heartfelt at the same time, which is exactly what many enjoy reading while on vacation. What inspired the novel? The external plot came to me as a result of the influence of two people in my life. My dear friend’s husband is a forensic accountant, so some of his stories about how people hide money and flee their…

Thanks so much for agreeing to be with us today, Nicola! What 5 things should readers know about you? Hmmmm. I am an unashamed history geek, I’m from New Zealand, sex scenes are my favorite to write, I spend way too much time online, and I will fight anyone who attempts to come between me and dessert. LOL—I’m with you on numbers 1, 4, and 5. Especially 5. Where did the inspiration for your book come from? Good question! I’m not entirely sure. I felt a bit jaded with Regency and wanted to write something completely different. Era and relationship.…

I live in Chicago, I have a twin, I’m originally from Maryland, I believe my characters are real, and I love a good fancy bottle of Jameson. Oooh, a twin—fun!
