IndieView with Andrew Cusick, author of Song for the Dead

Once something has been written, it’s out of my hands, so I’m happy if a single person is moved by something I’ve written.

IndieView with Marsh Rose, author of A Version of the Truth

I think it’s not possible for us to professionally edit our own writing. It’s something like a doctor not treating her own family member: we’re going to be biased.

IndieView with Melora Fern, author of Whistling Women and Crowing Hens

The only part that came easily was the idea. Birdie, the Versatile Quintet, and the other characters were itching to have their story told.

IndieView with Mariana Metodieva, author of Slava Sevryukova: The Clairvoyant Scientist

I was fascinated by Sevryukova’s story. She wasn’t only a clairvoyant; she also wanted to understand her gift scientifically. Her name is little known outside Bulgaria, and I felt her story deserved to be shared with an international audience.

IndieView with Corinne Hoebers, author of Tethered Spirits

In this novel, I have shown what happens when people fear anyone who is different, whether it be physically, culturally, or spiritually. I also show what happens when people learn about, and learn from one another.

IndieView with Jill MacLean, author of The Arrows of Fealty

I know one or two writers who claim writing is – or should be – fun. While it has wonderful moments – a vivid image comes to mind, a surprising simile, a perfect line of dialogue, and I think yes! – mostly, for me, writing is work. Work of the best kind, work as serious play, but work nevertheless.

IndieView with Dan Rice, author of Phantom Algebra

I think a past traumatic past is a solid horror trope, and her obsession with mixed martial arts separates her from other characters I’ve encountered in the genre.

IndieView with Peggy Wirgau, author of To Outwit Them All

I got the idea for the book when I saw a list of important women in American history. One was listed only as 355, a member of the Culper spy ring during the Revolution, a woman whose true identity we still don’t know.

IndieView with K. Valentin, author of An Amateur Witch’s Guide to Murder

The initial kernel of an idea came to me when I was at a local copy shop getting something printed. The manager of the place was this amazing goth guy. I’m talking stiletto nails, black lipstick, perfect eyeliner, and big dark hair, in a little work polo. He was magnificent—and a super good manager! I got my order filled expertly and left the place making up a story to my friend about how he obviously did black magic out of the back of the shop.

Bookview with Chris Gerrib, author of Strawberry Gold

Via his senile great-grandmother, he hears of some hidden gold, and out of desperation he starts looking. One of his classmates, Three Sticks, is also having financial trouble, although his problems are due to his dad’s poor investments. Three Sticks also learns of the gold, and the two young men are in a race to find out if it ever existed and if so if anything’s left.
