IndieView with Imania Margria, author of The Pacemaker

The Pacemaker was based off a nightmare I had. I wrote most of what I could remember down, and it transformed into this.

BookView with Khaled Talib, author of Gun Kiss

Real-life actors and actresses like Brooke Shields and Sandra Bullock have had terrible experiences with stalkers and crazy fans. I wanted to know what it felt like to be them; to feel their distress.

IndieView with S.B. Goncarova, author of Harnessing Light

The initial idea was to create a work that was authentic as possible, to allow myself to become vulnerable in ways that wer way out of my comfort zone, almost as an experiment to see what could happen.

IndieView with Angeline Walsh, author of Memento Mortale

Ideally, I’d like to reach as wide of an audience as possible, but I definitely think people who identify as outsiders or misfits might enjoy or appreciate this novel a little more than others.

IndieView with Maureen Stevenson, author of Ebony Eyes

Back then I use to read a lot of Patricia Cornwell novels; she writes murder mysteries. I had finished one of her books, cannot remember which one, and then Hailey Velck P.I. popped in my head and I began my writing.

IndieView with Henry Hitz, author of Squirrels in the Wall

Sometimes I have to explain that writers are assholes: we steal the identities of people we know, and we twist them around to suit the narrative. To the people (not many) who strenuously object, I say you know, it’s an honor to be in my book.

IndieView with Eliza Wilde, author of Shock Value

I’m a down to earth person and don’t take myself too seriously. I’m the type of person that loves to laugh and love to make people laugh because laughter truly is the best medicine. I think that is why I have a lot of humor in my book. I didn’t want the tone to be serious. I wanted to give my readers an authentic view of myself and sense of humor.

IndieView with Tamara Mallimo, author of Magnolia Landing

Malayna is what my Mama raised me to be – strong and resilient. Many times, when my husband would be deployed overseas, I would hear “oh you’re so strong” or “I don’t know how you do it.” The truth is no one knows what they are truly capable of until being strong is the only choice they have.

IndieView with Grace Covill-Grennan, author of Blockhead

I grappled a lot with how to describe other people, what to expose or not, the ethics of that. I tried to be very matter-of-fact and just report what I had directly experienced, but I also wanted to be careful to not publish things that could be perceived as reinforcing messed up stereotypes about, for example, how working class men behave, and so on.

IndieView with Brent Robins, author of The Perfect Culture

It attempts to show how varied cultures are in terms of food, customs, etc. Satire is present throughout the novel to keep it entertaining.
