#BytheStars we have no idea what we’re doing, but it’s all in good fun. Right @DanteHarker ?
Q1 How do you find the time to always be on twitter? Shouldn’t you be writing or something? #BytheStars
My mind is constantly running on overdrive so twitter helps to get out the fluff 🙂
I know the feeling! – also, should have said add A1… and so on so everyone can see this better 🙂
Q2 How did you manage to find a publisher for By the Stars? #BytheStars
Now I know why I’ve not done an Twitter interview before – I keep hitting refresh to see if I’ve missed anything!
(Does anyone on twitter really care anyway? haha)
Q3 Where did this story come from? #BytheStars
I’d kinda like to leave earth, I applied for the trip to Mars but they said I was too ‘chatty’ just rude!
Well we missed A3 and the hashtag off that last question – yay for being useless #bythestars
(In my defense, I had never done this before heehee. We’re missing just a few responses due to my # deficiency)
Q4 What makes this novella worth the read? #BytheStars
Remembered the number and the #, nailed it! #BytheStars
I once got kicked off a desert island. I don’t mix well, never mind settling with another culture #bythestars
Q5 Since you always talk of having trouble sitting still, how do you manage to sit and write? #BytheStars
Drinking at ‘wine time’ just seems wrong, well done on making the time, that’s half the battle 🙂 #Bythestars
Q6 Tell me which is your fav part of By the Stars #BytheStars
A6 – can you believe we made it to Q6 without breaking Twitter 🙂 #bythestars
@DanteHarker It’s a miracle #BytheStars
(I really wasn’t sure if we’d get through all 10 questions or not haha)
Q7 And this is the first book in a series? #BytheStars
I probably should stop screaming ‘refresh damn you, why won’t you refresh’ in a coffee shop. It’s scaring the locals #bythestars
Dammit where is question 7? #BytheStars I know it has to be posted by now. Maybe it’s the sock in the laundry of this interview haha
@DanteHarker A7 Yeah. When I finished the first novella, I knew it had more to it but different stories and Embracing Entropy was born.
A7 it’s super exciting to know that you have more than one story inside you 🙂 #Bythestars
@DanteHarker Haha book 2 is already drafted, now comes the hell of editing once I finish typing up my scribbles. #BytheStars
Oh how I hate editing, or more I hate the awkwardness of getting all the red all over my work when my editor’s done
@DanteHarker It’s painful to see your work bleeding, but necessary. #BytheStars
Q8 Why writing? What drew you to this profession? #BytheStars
OM Goodness this is hard on Twitter – though I might start a writers 10 Questions thing on say #writingweds
I get confused, I shouldn’t be allowed near the internet. Though I’m not in some countries #bythestars
Q9 How did you come up with the title for By the Stars? #BytheStars
A9 Nope, I have nothing witty to say. #Bythestars is a great title 🙂
(That made my day!)
OMG @DanteHarker we only have 1 question left! #BytheStars
Q10 How is book two of the series coming along? #BytheStars – yay we made it and nothing’s broken 🙂
Damn you #10 I know you’re out there somewhere #BytheStars
@DanteHarker So far, don’t jinx it. Haha Book 2 is drafted & almost typed up. Gotta finish editing. Hope my publisher approves #BytheStars
A10 we got there 🙂 Thanks to @jessmbaum for the interview and you can buy her book here: http://www.europeangeeks.com/by-the-stars.html
Survived my 1st twitter interview with @DanteHarker ‘s help. #BytheStars
I was so exhausted after this! Not sure if interviews on twitter will be a common thing or not, but I had fun and am always up for answering questions, even if they don’t pertain to my work, I love talking to people. The human connection really is my thing. Love people (some more than others haha) and Dante is an awesome friend to have done this for me.
