Interview with an Author

And how strange it feels that the author is me. Tracy Ann Baines interviewed me for her blog  -  which also contains highly recommended interviews with authors like Tabitha Suzuma (whose books I cannot recommend highly enough) and Margo Lanagan, author of the controversial and well-reviewedTender Morsels (I haven't read it yet, but I will).  There is a bit of a spoiler in the interview, but it doesn't give too much away I hope. Once When I Was Joe is published I'll come clean about my two bits of creative licence.

  3. Haha, I have my way with words.
    But, yeah now totally more excited about When I was Joe.

    -I promise this has nothing to do with the cute guy on the cover...

  5. We were selling them features for the non-porn section - they liked stuff about America and war. I sold them a feature about a factory for sex toys in California once, here it is: http://www.thecoverstory.com/bin/tcsp.dll/go?a=disp&t=gl-loader.html&_tlid=2&groupid=224&galleryid=1834&glbid=1720&si=14642E4ECC044091918CAC94536852&rnd=1323.14
