IndieView with Tara Hodgson, author of Chasing through Time

It was my way of communicating what I’m seeing as a teacher, namely, how social media has influenced the lives of teens. It is truly a project from the heart. It came to me all at once and literally poured out.

IndieView with Doug Lawrence, author of Grief: The Silent Pandemic

Knowing that the sharing of our story was going to help others and their journey with grief made it worth while and at times come a little easier. I don’t think that I could say that any of this came easily.

IndieView with Stacey Lannigan, author of After Avalon

I love writers who made a point of showing just how much power the “underdog” characters can hold. Nothing beats a classic diamond-in-the-rough character!

IndieView with Judith Lissauer Cromwell, author of Louise-Elisabeth Vigee Le Brun: Portrait of an Artist, 1755-1842

A few years ago the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York (where I live) held a retrospective of Louise-Élisabeth Vigée le Brun’s oeuvre. Reviewers praised the exhibit to such an extent that, despite never having heard of this artist, I went to see the show.

IndieView with A.D. Craig, author of My Guardian Demon

IndieView with Jade Cameron, author of Living the Dream

IndieView with Babs Walters, author of Facing the Jaguar

I made a promise to myself that day, that I would write a book so another little girl would not feel so alone. I did not know then that a lot of healing had to happen first.

IndieView with Cassandra O’Sullivan Sachar, author of Close the Door

As a mother, depicting my main character’s fierce devotion to her child came easily.

IndieView with Claire Barner, author of Moonrising

I want to write books that have layers. I want them to be enjoyable reads with characters and relationships you get obsessed with, while also being meaty enough for a deep book club discussion.

IndieView with Amy Blumenfeld, author of Such Good People

My father began his career as an attorney and when I was young his colleagues would come over to our house and I’d listen to the fact patterns as they prepped their cases around our dining table. Later, when he became a judge, I’d sit beside my dad on the bench and observe arraignments from his vantage point. I learned to appreciate nuance, the complexity of situations, and understood that behind every docket number was a human being.
